With a highly optimistic attitude and fun loving
nature, this actor has a lot in store as an
entertainer to give to the viewers. From a bad boy in
reel life to a good boy in real life, Gaurav Bajaj a.k.a
Sher Singh of Life Ok's popular Piya Rangrezz shares
his thoughts, his character qualities in the show
and lots more exclusively with
BollywoodIndiaTv.com...
You have been playing the role of a passionate and
strong lover. Do you think that your role portrays a
suffocated relationship lacking space?
Actually, it is not suffocating. It is about the things that
we don't know from the inner shell of the character. It's
about things that are hidden behind it. The nature of the
character is such that he can't stand cheating and
therefore such kind of relationships does get suffocating
but doesn't get suffocated if you know the depth of it. He
is not only a bad boy but a passionate lover. How he
transforms from this personality to a personality which
every woman, every mother and every wife would want a
man like him as a son or whatever. That's how we are
establishing the character as of now and there is a step
by step progress. Now the character is like this but its
scope in future would be like the one which was wished.
The character may have bad qualities but it has good
qualities as well.
How different is your real romantic life from reel
romantic life?
My real life goes very romantic since my wife is extra
romantic. As far as my reel life is concerned, it depends
on an A-4 size paper that how romantic I have to be on
the screen. In real life, I'm very much a passionate lover
like my wife who is also a strong romantic lover. We
usually share romantic vibes, thoughts and which comes
up together while meeting at a point or dining at a point.
This is what we' love and not I' love. It's highly different
because the character I play in the show is highly
romantic and a bad guy as well. In reel life, I play the bad
boy and a passionate lover and in the real life I'm just a
passionate, good boy, good son and a good husband.
What kind of revolution would you like to bring in
Indian television?
I would want a little breathing space for an actor, the
shooting schedule and the broadcasting schedule. We
shoot for 3-4 days for one episode, so there has to be a
technology benefit from overseas that we should get and
I'm sure that there is no such availability but there is
nothing which is impossible to get in India these days. It
should be some high end technology which helps us to
shoot as much as we can so that we can get at least one
or two days worth off in a week. That is what I personally
feel. In terms of revolution in television, I wish that some
day, hit TV shows should be screened on 70mm screens.
Although it sounds funny, it would be nice to view it on
silver screen.
What is that one thing you like about yourself and
one thing that you hate about yourself?
One thing that I like about myself is that, I don't hate
anything about myself. One thing I hate about myself is
that I love myself a lot (laughs).
What is your take on women being subjected to
various social complications?
I am completely against dowry. When you are marrying
someone, you are marrying a soul; you are getting
attached to a soul. Materialistic happiness is temporary
with relatives and in-laws but I think a man who is getting
married to a woman should always take a high stand
against everybody as a society and somewhere we can
convince his parents who are for dowry that he's getting
married to a soul and not a material. In my personal
experience, I never took dowry from my in-laws. I
believe that souls should get connected and should be
peaceful.
Any message to BollywoodIndiaTv fans?

blessing me for my new show, for the growth of my life.

personally can't reach to me and I'm sure they'll get back
to me and I'll revert. Thank you so much for everything.
