Shilpa Ssaklani's Ex boyfriend

Dandiya Nach

Is the actor bothered because he isn't a great dancer? "Who says so? I think I dance quite well," claims Punjj, and admits his reservations set up Gurdip's back.

"She was disappointed, for sure, but it wasn't feasible for her to allot dates either. Gurdip was just about to fly to the States for her dandiya shows; there was no way she could commit to Nach Baliye."

Just because the actor isn't part of the series, doesn't mean he doesn't watch it. "I think it's a fabulous concept, and it's doing so well. Sachin and Supriya are my favourites. I hope they win," says Punjj.

Career low

There isn't much happening on the work front for Punjj. "I have been getting both film and television offers, but don't want to commit to anything right now. Maybe by early December, I will have something in hand. Also, I don't want to do any negative roles — I am clear about that."

But why did he quit a successful show like Woh Rehne Wali Mehlon Ki? "I had certain issues, differences, which is why I took the decision. They are actually asking me to come back, but I haven't taken a decision yet. However, we had an extremely amicable parting, and I am still in touch with them."

Is it true that their relationship is going through a bad patch? "I am very happy with her, and we have no issues whatsoever. Touchwood," Punjj signs off.
