Rohit
Saraf's
dreamy
good
looks
and
new-age
charisma
is
making
every
girl
in
the
county
fall
for
him
at
the
first
glance.
But
did
you
know
-
his
journey
to
becoming
an
actor
started
when
he
was
a
little
kid
and
his
father
was
his
first
source
of
encouragement?
The
national
crush
opens
up
about
how
the
thought
of
acting
was
embedded
in
him.
Rohit
Saraf's
dad
often
encouraged
him
to
be
an
actor.
Talking
about
the
time
when
he
was
a
little
boy,
Rohit
remembers
how
his
dad
would
always
say,
"When
Rohit
grows
up,
I
want
him
to
be
an
actor."
So,
when
his
dad
passed
away,
a
12-year-old
Rohit
Saraf
decided
to
follow
his
father's
dream.
He
quit
school
in
the
10th
grade
and
packed
his
bags
for
Mumbai.
"My
mum
said,
'Maybe
you
should
finish
your
12th
grade
first'.
But
I
was
like,
if
I
tell
myself
that
I
should
have
a
backup
plan,
I
will
probably
not
do
well.
So,
I
never
had
a
Plan
B.
For
me,
each
project
has
been
a
stepping
stone.
I
don't
think
I
would
have
been
able
to
handle
success
instantly
or
altogether.
I'd
rather
build
it
up
slowly
because
I
want
to
be
able
to
cherish
it,
value
it,
and
appreciate
it," says
Rohit.
It
has
been
one
hell
of
a
ride
to
the
top
for
Rohit
Saraf
as
the
national
crush.
But
we
should
always
remember
that
it
all
began
with
a
5-year-old
striking
a
pose
in
front
of
the
camera,
imitating
an
actor
or
dancing
away,
and
then
going
on
to
fulfill
his
father's
dream.
Now,
isn't
that
adorable?
