He is a bad influence on the youth. He is trying to attract the young people, but the youth of this country will only face degradation if they follow people like him.

During admission season, my dad read in one of the leading magazines that Hansraj College was ranked number one in Commerce and number two in Science. And my dad, who was in Mhow, Indore, told me that if I got admission in Hansraj College, he’d be very proud. Without being part of DU, he knew about Hansraj.

I love to do shows where I am part of the creative team and I am the judge.”
