SBS says that Rajat love the water n swimming in the cold water of karjat, well may be very few of us knows that he's a national level swimmer 😃
Its an old article of him during PRC, he admitted that, so offcourse he will luv it 😉
Sixteen-year-old Rajat Tokas, who rules the hearts of kids across the country, feels shy when any female fan approaches him. In an exclusive interview with AT, the young star talks about his love for acting, the importance of education and having no time for a girlfriend
This 16-year-old already has a huge female fan following. But that hardly calls for surprise as Rajat Tokas, who plays the character of the young Prithviraj Chauhan in a popular television serial, is a very talented child artiste, besides being good-looking.
Rajat started his journey in the world of acting when he was just five years old. "I started with a serial on Doordarshan and spent two years doing theatre. I came to Mumbai only two years back," says this down-toearth youngster. He goes on to add that while getting a break as Prithviraj Chauhan was not really a piece of cake, his confidence did not deceive him: "I gave some 20 auditions for this particular character before I made it."
Rajat's popularity has stemmed from the character of the young Prithviraj Chauhan that he portrays on screen. But, how similar is the real Rajat to the character he plays? "I am very moody. I would not pain myself if I am not in a right mood, whereas the character is very head strong and determined," he replies.
That success has not gone to his head is obvious when the IXth standard student remarks that he knows the importance of education and tries to maintain a balance between studies and shoots. He says, "I don't get time to go to school and so I am studying through a correspondence course. As of now I want to concentrate on my career but I also know that education is important and thus I will not leave my studies half-way."
Interestingly, Rajat has a huge female fan following, which he says, makes him uncomfortable. "I feel happy being just a teenager and I feel very shy and strange too," laughs the young actor with child-like innocence. What about a girlfriend? "I don't even get time to meet my mother as I go home only once or twice in six months. So where is the time to make girlfriends?" he asks.
As talk veers towards family, he is quick to say that the credit of his success goes to his parents: "My father has left his job and accompanies me to all my shoots. They (my parents) have dedicated their life to my career, and I fully acknowledge their hardwork in my success."
When not shooting, Rajat loves to sleep. "Whenever I get time, I sleep for hours. Else, I play football, which I love," he says. This young lad is also a swimming champion. "I have won a gold medal at a National swimming championship," he adds.
Ask him about his screen idol, and he says that every actor has something good to give: "I try and learn those things from all actors that they are good at," says the little bundle of talent
