You have been a part of the TV industry for over a decade now. What has been the journey like, from 'Aakrosh' to 'Agent Raghav'?
When you come from a small town and become successful, it feels good. I aspired to be an engineer and never dreamt of becoming an actor. However, I couldn't become an engineer due to various reasons. Then I wanted to get into the army, but that didn't work out either. I have always believed that if you want to achieve anything, you have to keep learning. And that's what I have been doing, learning my craft.
What has been the most important lesson so far?
The most significant aspect is to have patience. I believe you have to wait and keep calm. Select your work judiciously and do it with complete honesty.

You have dubbed for Hollywood films, and for Prabhas' role in the Hindi version of 'Bahubali'...
I am a great fan of director SS Rajamouli. I just got lucky when someone suggested my name to him and I lent my voice for Prabhas. The best part was that he would be present for the dubbing and I interacted with him.
Tell us about the person that you are.
I try to give my family as much time as possible. I am a workaholic and do not like to waste a single day. I even try to write!
Do you think Indian television has changed now?
I don't understand the shows that are getting highest ratings. Producers say this is what people want to watch " daayans and bhoots. We should work towards creating a better reputation for Indian TV. All this daayan, gorilla is plain nonsense. In between all these, some good shows end up getting bad ratings.
You are quite a fit person. Tell us about your fitness regime.
I have always been into sports. I have been working out since an early age as I was a gym trainer. I try to have healthy meals at regular intervals.
