Kushal Tandon article in DC

Since childhood I have loved sports. I remember swimming for hours and playing football with friends. After coming back from school, I'd never finish my homework but would always head out for a swimming session with friends. In my teenage years, I became a national silver medal swimmer and state-level hockey and football player. Playing sports has made me fit both mentally and physically. Playing a sport relaxes me and calms my mind, it helps me focus on life which at times is difficult in this industry. Acting in a daily soap Ek Hazaaron Mein Meri Behna Hain doesn't leave me with enough time but whenever I am free I either play FIFA on my Xbox or go for a swim. I was the first runner-up to Mr Grasim in 2005 and it paved way to the glamour industry. After walking the ramp, I set my heart on acting. But I am sure if I had chosen not to act and model, I would have been a sportsman for sure. I do enjoy driving around occasionally listening to music but playing sports just takes me on another track all together.
