Yup, he writes beautiul poetry in both hindi and english. he is a thorough gentleman, well read and well educated. he is a wonderful , wonderful actor. i agree that gkd was the most awesome show for the first 2-3 months and then it went downhill, but that wasnt his fault. He used to just straddle the scene like there was no one else. and he was the most unassuming, soft spoken guy ever. doesnt believe much in pr, or self propagation and perhaps thats why he is somewhat underrated. he did a movie where he was well-appreciated. to tell the truth, i didnt like rab but that was becoz i just couldnt stand that show in general. but above all, ashish is very keenly involved in a lot of social causes and helps many organizations. and a huge plus, he loves animals!!!
