It's been a double Celebration'

Gurmeet Choudhary holds a special bash on his birthday

With your serial completing an year and your birthday happening around the same time, you must be feeling elated..
It's been a great celebration on the sets with so many fans landing up — some from Europe and Pakistan too. It's a feeling of accomplishment. Punarvivaah has actually made a difference to the way people think about remarriage. A crew member recently told me that he is actually getting remarried after working on the show. Scores of people write in telling me how the show has inspired them to give marriage a second shot after a divorce or having lost their spouse. More and more women have begun to assert their right to happiness after a failed marriage or widowhood.
What do you think has worked well for the show?
The show delivers a strong message without being too preachy. Since its launch, it raised very pertinent questions as to why there is a separate set of rules for men and women when it comes to remarriage. The idea of a mother-in-law taking a vow to get her own bahu remarried after her son has deserted her for appealed to fans all over. The gradual adjustments of two people who have been married in the past, their teething troubles before they slowly come together were depicted in a realistic manner and people could relate to it.
How has the journey from playing Ram (Ramayan) to playing Yash been?
It's been an exciting journey, without a doubt! Each role has had so many shades, layers. I have been able to bring forth so many aspects of my own individual personality in front of the audience with each role. And the appreciation has been so overwhelming. It's the love of my fans and their blessings that has brought me to where I stand today.
How did you celebrate your birthday?
Debina (wife) had a surprise for me at midnight. She initially said that it was going to be just the two of us. And she sat in front of me and asked me to close my eyes. Within moments, so many of our friends landed up in the room. It was a pyjama party of sorts and we all had a great time!
What do you do between takes when you are on the sets? How is your bonding with co-stars?
Oh, this is something everybody will tell you on the sets. I am well known for my naps. As soon as there is a break between takes, I instantly get horizontal and catch up on some much needed sleep. I bond well with my co-stars. When you work as a team, it is important to share a good chemistry and warm vibe with those around.
Any other movie or television projects in the pipeline?
There are some projects in the wings. But I would rather not divulge too many details of that at this stage. I choose my projects very carefully and I am currently deliberating on a couple of them.
What do you enjoy more? Acting or dancing?
I am an actor who dances, not a dancer who can act. I love both acting and dancing as I enjoy both the forms of expression. They both call for creativity and imagination.
How do you maintain such a fit physique?
It is a combination of being genetically blessed, a lot of meticulous hard work in the gym and controlling the diet too.
