When quizzed on what makes him shy or awkward around her, Rajat says, "Paridhi is one of those rare blessed women whose good looks are matched by inner beauty. She conducts herself with utmost dignity at all points and is very graceful in the way she speaks and moves around. She is very popular on the sets - be it amongst the spot boys, make-up artistes or the remaining cast. As for me, I find myself very tongue-tied around beautiful women in general and I'll just say she is no exception!"
Recently, for a dream sequence, Rajat and Paridhi were required to mount a horse together and sit back-to-back and charge away on it! Hardly a prude and a thorough professional, Paridhi had absolutely no qualms about shooting the sequence. But, set insiders reveal that Rajat was quite sheepish about the sequence and seemed rather embarrassed at the prospect of holding Paridhi close. It was only when the crew cracked a few jokes and made light of the situation and got Rajat-Paridhi talking that he loosened up and gave the shot! Quite a surprise package, this Rajat!
