When I came here in 2001, I met people like (advertising filmmaker) Prahlad Kakkar, and then got modelling assignments for Amul, Nescafe and Nirma. I started like any other newcomer.

I think acting has grown on me. If I have a day off, I don't know what to do.

I knew this profession provides uncertainty. But I stuck on. In retrospect, I think I made a sensible decision. I was a computer engineer with a secure profession. But here was a field where you do something different every day. And that is what I always wanted.

I knew I would make it one day.
