As a host: India's Best Dramebaaz
He has done shows like Bandini, Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani in the past and is also known for his dancing skills. The actor, who currently plays Arjun in Pavitra Rishta, got prominence when he recently started hosting kid's reality show India's Best Dramebaaz. Hosting acts as a stress buster for him as compared to Pavitra Rishta which is high on drama and emotion. "I think I got the due recognition as a host as compared to my other shows. You need to be yourself as there is no script unlike in daily soaps. The audience gets to know the real you which helps in connecting in a better way. As you are the driving force of the show, you got to have a great personality. Hosting has definitely given me an edge over my other shows," says Rithwik.
