First you proved to be a good singer, then an actor and now a dancer too... I think my luck and hard work is helping me. Initially I wanted to become a singer and that's how I landed up in Indian Idol. Indian Idol gave me a big platform and from there I tried my hands in films and now I'm in Jhalak. I just hope my audience keep loving me like this. |
This week also you have scored a perfect 30
This week was one of the toughest performances. Each contestant was to use a prop in their performance. And we have to think something absolutely different and I feel the entire credit goes to my choreographer Maricha. Because of her only we manage to score 30.

Who all are strong contestant and good dancers on Jhalak? I feel Yana Gupta and Sushant Singh Rajput are the strongest contestants of Jhalak. They are born as dancers I feel. Their moves, dance step and style make them different. I was shocked when Yana got eliminated because she is one of the strongest contestant. |
And what about you? I think I can do it if I remained till the end. Before taking part in Jhalak I didn't even know whether I could. From day one in Jhalak I can feel that I have improved a lot. And I always loved dancing and enjoy watching someone dance. What I like about dancing is you have to perform your steps and at the same time take care of your posture and give the correct expression. Doing all of them together is a beautiful effort and I am enjoying that. |
Do you feel some kind of pressure as the days are coming closer? It is a competition and of course every contestant wants to win but we can't take it as pressure because when you take it as pressure your performance becomes dull. Yes we do more practice, we had to give more time and energy to our acts. |
What made you come back to reality show after doing Badmaash Company? I wanted to try something different. Everytime I have tried something different so that I don't get into a routine. Every day if you do the same work you feel like bored after a while. So I keep trying something different. |
Didn't you get any other film offers? After Badmaash Company actually I got many offers but all similar to that character which didn't attracted me much so I didn't take up any role. |
Which other television shows you love to watch? I watch some reality shows like Entertainment Ke Liye Kuch Bhi Karega, Fear Factor, Friends and few more. | |||
