Avinash Sachdev aka Dev in Zee TV Choti Bahu, is taking his role too seriously specially the on-going wedding track. The actor has also shifted base closer to the sets so that he can save some traveling time and concentrate on grooming himself.
A unit member from the sets spoke to the press, "Dev isn't one of those bulky actors who are currently seen on screen. However, the wedding track that is going on in the show has changed the way the unit looked at him. Avinash has become aware of the way he looks and has got into bodybuilding. In fact, he has moved his base closer to the sets so that he does not end up wasting much time in commuting. With this initiative of Avinash, the production house is happy as it very rare that any actor has done like this."
About this new development, Avinash said in the press, "Yes, it's true that I have shifted my base nearer to the place where I shoot. I hardly get time to look after myself with the busy television schedules I am into since I have got into the show. I also have lost a lot of weight because of the erratic schedules and unhealthy lifestyle. Thankfully, we have a permanent set in Dahisar, which has made my life easy by being closer to the sets. Now I have rented an apartment in Kandivali and hence I'm able to dedicate some quality time at the gym instead of spending time commuting in busy traffic."
