When did you first face the camera and what was it like?
“I think it was in 11th grade. I was a junior artist in the film Naqaab which starred Akshay Khanna, Bobby Deol and Urvashi Sharma. I was in Dubai and I hadn’t even come to Mumbai. I hadn’t even thought of becoming an actor. Then I was working as a junior.”

When was your first salary and how much was it?
“It was for Rs 1,000 and I gave it to my parents. I still give them the money I get. I am an actor and I do multiple shows but I don’t have more than Rs 10,000 in my pocket. For anything else, I call my father. I do it because he loves it and I think we should do it for our parents. We have to constantly make them feel that we are still their children and we owe them.”
When did you meet at the treasure hunt and what was it like?
“It was during Nach Baliye. It was beautiful and wonderful. It felt larger than life. The feeling was amazing. I can’t put it into words. Asha and I were in the picture. It was all over Mumbai.
When did you have your first moment with a fan and what was it like?
“It was during the show Pyaar Kii Ye Ek Kahaani, I had just started doing the show and it had been a few months. I saw this group of girls waiting outside the studio. The show was all about Vivian, so usually the fans were there for him. I was walking to my dressing room and these girls were yelling my name “J”. Suddenly I turned around and they had made little notes and expressed how much they liked who I was. It was really amazing.”
When did you write a love letter?
“I was in 9th Std. I got a reply, but not right away. At first the letter was thrown away, but after 2-3 months I received a reply. We started seeing each other and she was my first girlfriend.
When was the moment you had a fan moment when you met a celebrity you loved?
“I was never star struck and I never really had a fan moment until I was in Las Vegas a few years ago when I saw Penn and Teller the Wizards. Magic is really close to me. The only fan moment was when I saw Teller and asked for a picture.”
What is your favorite Pavitra Rishta memory?
“There are a lot of memories. It has given me my life, both personally and professionally. You can’t ask me to choose from my entire trip. That would be really unfair. Every little thing about this show has made me who I am, so I’m really grateful.”
