TOI: Avika Simar.. Study buddies

Apart from essaying the male lead opposite a much younger Avika Gor in Colors' Sasural Simar Ka, Manish Raisinghani shares a unique relationship with the girl off screen too.

The engineer-turned-actor (currently pursuing web designing and computer programming) and Gor, a class ninth student, are study buddies. Both of them are passionate about their studies and

bring books along on the sets and can often be seen studying together. Manish says, "It's quite fun to be paired opposite someone who is half my age. Avika is full of life and a chatterbox. She's an extremely inquisitive person. And the best part is that is she loves her job the way I do! We like studying together and keep motivating each other." When asked about how people react to this odd pairing, the actor says, "We still haven't had many scenes together but I am sure people will find it quite refreshing as her character will tone down the aggressiveness of my character." Well, this is quite a fun off-screen bonding!
