  • In an interview, he mentioned that he was a great admirer of Bollywood icon Shah Rukh Khan and specifically chose to study at Hansraj College in Delhi, the same college Shah Rukh Khan attended. He shared,

    I was a 11-year-old kid, watching Shah Rukh Khan on ‘Yess Boss’ when I decided that I wanted to be an actor. All my life, I have idolised him and even before my family and friends, he was the first one to give me that initial push to dream of becoming an actor. In fact, when I grew up, I went to Delhi only to study in his college, Hans Raj College and do theatre, where I truly found my footing in theatre. There have been times when I have felt low and tired, but I keep reminding myself that if he can do it, I can too. One day I want to meet him and tell him that I am here because of him and the way he dreamt and worked hard.”
