A page from the personal diary of Gaurav Khanna I fondly remember the days when I held my mom and dad’s hands and went to school. Those days were lovely. I hail from Kanpur and shifted to Mumbai to pursue MBA. Now I stay alone and miss my parents a lot. You will not believe that I didn’t have the slightest bit of inclination to become an actor. I was about to join as the marketing manager of a company when one day a person mistook me as a model in a gym. He showed confidence in me and signed me for an advertisement. That’s how it all began. As a child, I did participate in many competitions and won many awards and certificates. I have always loved the feeling of appreciation. I loved when someone called me on the stage and praised me. I think this innate feeling drew me towards the profession of acting. The day I chose acting as my profession I started worked really hard. I have worked constantly for almost 5-6 years and finally decided to take a break now. I took a break as work was getting repetitive and I decided to wait for a better and interesting opportunity before signing anything. Many people don’t know that I paint a lot. I have been painting since childhood. Now that I am at leisure I spend time painting, sleeping, clicking photos and watching movies. Furthermore, people keep asking me why I don’t have a girlfriend. Well, I love all women so I can’t afford to be with only one. Sometimes, I feel I am lucky to be a part of the medium that allows me to entertain so many people. I thank all my fans for appreciating my work and showering me with so much love. Please love me in the future as well.
