Vishal[Abhi’s bro in Kesar] interview

On your sex appeal
I believe it's my weird denture (laughs). Girls tell me that I have a pleasantly wicked smile. I guess that's the USP of my face.

How girls react to you
Initially they think that I talk a lot of heavy stuff but gradually they realize that I'm the guy next door. I'm very approachable and after a point also very gullible (laughs). I make for a good friend and at times a good punching bag too. But that way even guys think I make for a great buddy.

Your first date
I was in F.Y.J.C. and it was quite a nervous feeling. It was my first close encounter with girls but after that I realized that they're also human (laughs). Since then it's been a good experience with them. My first date became my girlfriend and after a courtship period of nine years, we got married (laughs).

Your first crush
My class teacher in std. 3. I was smart enough to fall for a teacher I could spend the maximum time with (laughs). She was really cute and paid a lot of attention to me. I was the brightest kid in class when she was around.

Your most cherished compliment
I was doing a play, Ek Aur Dronacharya where my face was not seen. Someone came up to me after the show and said that I have the most expressive voice. It felt very good.

Your wildest compliment
One of the senior renowned actresses
once told me on the sets, 'if I were younger, we'd have surely had an affair'. I'm still working with her (laughs).

Love & romance...
Love is the most supreme of all emotions and keeps me afloat. It makes me believe in humankind. I would say that it makes the world a nice place to be in. Romance is a glorified way of asking for sex (laughs). It's really beautiful and mushy but the bottom line is sex. I'm not an articulate person so I'd easily say that I'm not a romantic person.

Lust...
Lust is a bad mirror of men (laughs). Everyone lusts. It's the driving force to get to the point. But of late, I haven't experienced lust for a woman besides my wife. I guess marriage helps one to keep a check on oneself. But I don't deny being attracted to woman with good athletic bodies and a bit of brains of course.

On a nudist beach
Being a doctor, I wouldn't say that I'd study human anatomy (laughs). I'd wait for the best time and plunge in . I don't think I'd want to show off my body. I don't have that perfect beach body. Long hours of shooting don't leave me with too much time to work out.

What if a girl made a pass at you?
I wouldn't say that I'll ignore it. I'd definitely cherish it but I wouldn't encourage her.
I'm a married guy so don't want to tread that ground.

Would you ask a girl out if you liked her but didn't know her well?
Yes, I would. It will be to some place where I can have good conversation with her initially.

What if you fell short of money on a date?
I wouldn't mind asking the girl to chip in. I'm sure she wouldn't mind.

Your dream date
I love beaches so it would be on a nice isolated beach. There would be a nice bonfire and I'd experience the sand and water and sunbathe later. It would be with Angelina Jolie. She's got those hot bee stung lips.

Would you dress to impress a girl?
I know what women think but I don't know what women really like so I would dress up comfortably. I think I'd impress her with my talks (laughs).

Flirtations...
I flirt at times. It's harmless flirting. Maybe
if I weren't married I'd go the whole way (laughs).

Marriage...
I'd never thought of marriage although I spent a long courtship period with my wife. I was also sure that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her but marriage was an impulsive decision. Marriage is a social need but I would have been happy with a live-in relationship.

What if your wife caught you with your pants down?
I'd say it wasn't me! (Laughs). It reminds me of a Hollywood film that I'd seen a while back. But I'm sure a situation like that will never arise!

Your wildest bedroom fantasy
Married men have tried everything under the sun so they are always waiting for something new and wicked to come to their mind. Will let you know! (Laughs).

Are women a necessary evil?
They are necessary for sure. Who said they are evil
