What I like best about him is that he is a very simple chap with a clean heart and of course he is in love. I love people who are in love.

Why according to you is Yeh Ishq Haaye different?

YIH is different in the sense that it is somewhere between being a very youthful show and a usual daily soap, I have never been a part of such a genre.

Are then any similarities between Akshay and Raunaq?

No, not many similarities

Absolutely not. I am totally an extrovert.

Like your character have you ever been in a situation where you liked a girl but was hesitant to propose to her?

No, I always walked up to a girl I like and say 'hi, I like you'.

Did you always aspire to be an actor?

Not really, I prefer to go with the flow, but I always wanted to be a part of this industry.

Your favorite co-stars?

Ankita Shrivastava, Amit Gupta, Akshat Gupta, Darpan Shrivastava. I don't think I can stop as the list is very long.

The actors you wish to work with in the future?

I haven't thought about that but I would surely love to work with all these guys I just mentioned.

One role you would love to play in the future?

I would love to play a cop once.
