Here is Amit's new interview
passionate about cricket: Amit Varma
Amit, the first boyfriend of Kittu in Kittu sab jaanti hai, talks about his career
Were you interested in acting since childhood? I was very passionate about cricket and acting. In school, I took coaching in cricket from Ramakant Achrekar (Sachin Tendulkar's coach) but had to give it up because of education. I was equally passionate about acting so I made up my mind that for acting, I will not let any reason be a hindrance. How did your modelling career start? In college, I realised that ramp modeling isn't the kind of career I was looking for. So I started modeling in studios for products immediately after my graduation. It took me roughly six months to get my first break in advertisements. The thums up commercial provided the mileage for many more ads to follow like Lifebuoy, Surf, VIP, BSNL. Then I did the Airtel commercial where I featured with Shahrukh Khan. How about videos and serials? After these ads, I did a music video for HMV for Kishore Kumar's song "Haan Pehli Baar" Then I got the role of a sweet weird flirt called Raju in the serial Khichdi. Then I bagged the central character of Vish opposite Sonal Sehgal in serial Hotel Kingston for Star One. What do you like...apart from acting? I enjoy music, dancing, cricket, watching films and sleeping. —Dharam Pal
