While many in the industry tend to thumb down TV heart throb Rajeev

Khandelwal as being a troublesome actor to work with, one person who believes he is a dream artiste is producer Tony Singh of DJ's who's directing him in Left Right Left..

"He is a perfectionist," says Singh. "And if there is a Khandelwal around you can be sure that everyone on the sets will be on their toes, right from the executive producer to the creative director to the unit hand."

Singh adds that he likes to put in his best; if he feels that the scene is not doing justice to the character, he talks it out with creative to make it work. "In the end, the character and the show tend to benefit. More than that he's a committed actor, " says Singh.

Singh says that the industry needs more Rajeevs around. "Once he even offered to take a cut in his pay, because he felt that I was in a spot during Left Right Left with the huge overheads on the sets," says the producer of successful shows such as Banegi Apni Baat, Just Mohabbat, Jassi Jaisi Koi Nahin, Left Right Left, Jab Love Hua and Jeetein Hain Jiskey Liya.
