How
did
Meri
Aashiqui
Tum
Se
Hi
and
Jhalak
Dikhhla
Jaa
8
happen
to
you?
I
was
learning
dance
and
wanted
to
pursue
dance
professionally.
I
was
planning
to
go
abroad.
Everything
was
set
and
I
had
even
informed
the
same
in
the
institute,
but
I
got
Meri
Aashiqui
Tum
Se
Hi
somehow.
For
the
show,
I
had
to
leave
my
dream
and
it
has
been
about
one
and
half
year
now.
But,
I
always
had
in
my
mind
that
I
couldn't
fulfil
my
dream.
It
was
then,
I
got
this
call
for
Jhalak
Dikhhla
Jaa
8
and
I
didn't
think
even
for
a
second
and
accepted
the
offer
as
I
thought
this
was
a
chance
to
live
my
dream.
How
are
you
managing
both
the
shows?
Have
you
left
Meri
aashiqui
for
Jhalak?
No,
no,
I
am
shooting
for
12-14
hours
every
day
and
after
the
shoot
I
go
for
the
rehearsals
and
that's
how
I
am
managing.
I
sleep
for
only
2-3
hours
every
day,
and
if
I
am
lucky,
I
sleep
for
half
an
hour
extra
may
be.
I
believe
in
the
thought
'to
gain
something,
you
got
to
lose
something'.
I
was
a
kind
of
person
who
used
to
sleep
for
14
hours!

Who inspires you the most in the Bollywood – As a dancer and actor?
Both as an actor and dancer, Hrithik Roshan inspires me the most, apart from Shahid Kapoor (dance). Hrithik is an amazing dancer. He was the first one who totally blew me off with his dance skills.

Are you doing any other show apart from Meri Aashiqui Tum Se Hi and Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 8?
Right now, no. I don't have time, I just have 24 hours (laughs). After doing these two shows, I am sleeping for 2-3 hours. But let's see what happens after Jhalak...

OMG! Choreograph an actor... let me learn first. Don't know about the choreography, but yes, I want to dance with Hrithik and Shahid.

He is just a friend.
Are you dating anyone right now?
No, I am not dating any.
