Ektaa Kapoor tells Delhi Times why Sujal of Star's TV serial Kahiin To Hoga is her ideal man
Among all the actors in my TV serials, Sujal (played by Rajeev Khandelwal) is my favourite because he comes closest to my idea of the perfect man. He is the strong and silent type; he is passionate; and he isn't all black or white but has shades of grey. This makes him real and easy to associate with because one appreciates that there is a bad side to his plus points. Every human being has weaknesses and it is easy to visualise a man like Sujal.
At the same time, I don't really believe that there is an ideal man out there, and neither do I have a list of traits for men. Good looks are not a pre-requisite but a man I like must have confidence, self-righteousness, passion and the intensity to turn me on. Marriage is some way away. I'm not seeing anyone now as I'm preoccupied with work. It doesn't matter whether my man is from the film industry or some other profession.
