Rajeev says, "Yes, I will be playing today depending on Amod's time schedule. I have known him for a long time. He is obviously the best in the business and has also won national and international matches. I know I play badminton very well, but he is the best. It will be a great learning process as well and I will definitely get to learn a trick or two from Amod."

Rajeev further says, "I have always been very fond of sports and thankfully I have managed to still maintain that childlike passion whenever I am playing. I play badminton, squash and tennis at the Goregoan Sports Complex, whenever I am free for a few hours at a stretch. Shabbir Aluwalia plays against me, as he is also fond of these sports. I have also been a gymnast all my life and I used to be in diving champion in my college days. My father is in the army because of which I had access to all the clubs. That gave me all the time and means to learn sports in my childhood."

"I have also been very passionate about horse riding and have just joined Jeetu Varma's stud farm and I am enjoying it," adds Rajeev.
