Gaurav 'Nandu' Gera

tvgyan

When I was first offered the role in Jassi Jaissi Koi Nahi, Priya (the producer) had asked me what I thought of the name Nandan. I said it was a horrible name and that I didn't like it at all. Besides, ch***ya nandan is a curse word in Delhi, so I wanted to stay as far away from it as possible.

It was only then that she told me that Nandan is one of Tony's really good friends and that's how she thought of the name. I was completely embarrassed. I didn't know where to look. Well, eventually that's how I got my name Nandu in the show.

Hey thanks for the info... Ya, Nandan does sound old name at first..but now after looking at his character i think Nandan Verma suits just perfect.... but I still love to call him "Nandu Bandhu"...he is so cute! 😛
