Gurpreet Singh finally has some time for himself since his serial Kahin to Hoga has just wound up. The actor says for two years his life revolved only around work. Extremely happy with his well-earned free time Gurpreet says, "At last I have the time to spend with my wife and family. For two years work was my first priority and now it is going to be family till I take up another job. There are lots of offers and I have to choose the best role now."

After a long time the actor sounds relaxed because his two-year stint in Kahin to Hoga was anything but easy. Not only was he repeatedly compared to the original Sujal, Rajeev Khandelwal, but he had to also deal with co-star and leading lady Aamna Sharif's icy vibes. Talking about life on sets he says, "It was definitely not a very nice beginning. I was new to acting and there was a constant comparison between Rajeev and me. I faced a lot of criticism and there were lot of expectations from me. I don't know whether it was fair or unfair, but nothing unnerved me though. Maybe I was not as good as Rajeev to begin with. But I learnt a lot from the show and gained lot of technical knowledge. And I loved doing the serial."

Gurpreet also feels people grew to love him as Sujal by the end of the show. "People loved me as Sujal, I grew more popular than Rajeev. The character's graph was very good. When I replaced Rajeev, Sujal was not a simple character. He was trying to come to terms with one problem after another in his life. But he proved to be a good son, brother, husband and friend. I enjoyed Sujal's journey. I am glad that the show ended on a happy note," he smiles.

Aamna seems to be having a problem with a lot of her co-stars lately...even Surveen (Charu) said that Aamna was 'cold' towards her. I wonder if the problem lies with Aamna herself or with the people she is acts cold towards!

That could be true😊I mean,if someone is constantly having problems with many of her co-stars...it might just be her problem

P.S.-I don't mean to sound mean or anyhting,but let's face it...it might be the truth😲

It's kind of sad to see beginning actors who think of themselves as "All that"!He probably doesn't even read half the stuff the media rumours about him

I feel, not being rude, he is being very much overconfident. In this interview even through its very humble of him to admit that he might not be as good as rajeev its rude of him to say that he was more popular then rajeev. As far as aamna is concerned, those were all romours abt her fight with surveen. And surveen admitted that on MTV that she actually got very well along with Aamna. And aamna has always been quite close to all her costars like shabbir, the guy who plays chetan, rajeev, the old mehek, swayam a.k.a vikas. They have admitted that in numerous interviews.

Sorry to say Aamna actually had fight with Surveen and gave very cold shoulder to Gurpreet too. This is from someone who was very much present there.

Gurpreet!!! What can I say. Unless he gets out of that dream world he will face a worse scenario. Not a single production house is ready to give him work. Not even Balaji's. Rajeev turned into a TV Super Star after the role of Sujal. And Gurpreet says he became more famous than Rajeev.

Tch Tch... this very arrogance will cause your downfall Gurpreet. Better put down your feet on ground and see the truth.

Well said. I have no idea what to say about Gurry,All i can say is that I lost interest after Rajeev left, Yet I watched the show for flashbacks of him and aamna.😳But then they storyline disappointed me. If I said anything offensive, I am very sorry.😊
