Do you have a dream which you are willing to play on-screen on any platform?

I have done quite a lot of negative characters till now. I never knew that I'll be able to play negative characters. I know myself very properly and my core is very emotional. I want to be a part of a soft and romantic drama. 

TV actors often complain about getting typecast? What is your take on this?

I feel everyone has a different point of view on this. It's all about how we think. It's all about luck and what kind of roles we are offered. I was offered a lot of negative roles. The process of casting becomes a little easy when someone is looking for actors to play a particular character. I feel everyone has their own forte. But I feel it does not limit us as an actor. I won't say that I have been typecast. 

How has been your experience working with Balaji Telefilms? 

I did some small but impactful roles in Balaji's previous TV shows. Post that, I had decided that I want to work with this production house. I did a lot of other projects which were not for TV but were related to films and ads. Post that, I had stopped taking up TV shows. I think I have majorly worked with Balaji Telefilms and Rajshri Productions. I always keep Balaji as my priority. I had got two offers from different productions apart from Appnapan and had to say no to them as I wanted to be a part of this show. I feel balaji now listens to me and I am happy I am getting so many great opportunities.
