When you talk to Rishabh, you will realise as to why he slips into his role with so much ease. He is as cool as a cucumber and has a witty sense of humor that makes him extremely interesting to interact with! So lets take a look at what the guy is like for real.
Rangmunch: What is that one thing you are grateful for in life?
Rishabh: This life which my mom and dad gave me and apart from that the urge to do something. "Zindagi se jo kuch chaha woh mila, aisa hua nahi ki jo chaha woh mila nahi, koshish karni padti hai." And that's what we all do.
Rangmunch: Did you always want to be an actor?
Rishabh: No I never wanted to be an actor, pictures bohot dekhi par kabhi socha nahi tha ki actor banunga.
Rangmunch: Do you listen to others?
Rishabh: Yes ofcourse, I only listen to them, but I do what I have to do. "Sunta sabki hoon, karta apni mann ka hoon."
Rangmunch: What is that one thing you need to change about yourself?
Rishabh: I think from my heart all the time. I think everything about life and work from my heart and that does become a problem at times. Dimaag sirf paise calculate karne ke liye hai, calculations ke liye nahi (says with a meaningful look).
Rangmunch: Do you take enough risks?
Rishabh: Agar risks nahi lunga toh aage kaise badunga... how will I move on if I don't take risks.
Rangmunch: One friend you lost touch with and would like to get connected back again?
Rishabh: Ek bohot khubsoorat si ladki thi 'Moon'. I think she must be in Saudi now or somewhere. I had a HUGE crush on her. I was crazy about her and she left when I was in 5th grade. This is for her, "Moon where ever you are I am always watching you and thinking about you" She was as beautiful as her name, sirf chehre pe daag nahi tha (smiles).
Rangmunch: If you are asked to change your name to some other name, what would that be?
Rishabh: Shiva! I am a big follower of lord Shiva, it's so pure when you say his name.
Rangmunch: What pisses you off?
Rishabh: What pisses me off are fakesters, people who talk good about you and say negative things behind your back. I just hate fake people. "Agar aap bure ho toh aap bure ho, don't pretend otherwise. Don't be good and then bitch and vice versa."
Rangmunch: What's your idea of a Saturday out if you are not working?
Rishabh: Maa ke haath ka khana aur uske baad party pe jaana (says with a smile).
Rangmunch: What according to you is your greatest asset?
Rishabh: My charm.
