If if I was a change guy I wouldn’t be a change guy.  I wouldn’t be doing Jhalak maybe yeah because a lot of people they feel once your movie works you should quit TV. I don’t come from that school. I think I’m happier being on TV also in movies also in web also. So I think I’m I’m feeling great. But yes a lot of directors and producers have started calling they want to work with me. They have some different kind of films uh scripts for me which makes me feel good yeah.”

He further added, “You know the great thing is Akash I’ll tell you that it’s not just comedies which are coming to me I’m doing a web show which is not comedy, it’s a thriller. It’s a different,  it’s a different guy I’m playing it is nowhere close to what I am so that makes me happy. I’m very happy that you know the director the producer they’ve thought about me in that light. Suddenly they said when we saw the film now we we knew that there’s is an actor in you there is that actor who needs to come out.  We thought you could do this so that makes me feel very happy. As I said I’m the same guy it’s not that my film has done well so I’m suddenly higher what’s up guys I’m not that yeah I think uh it was a phase the movie has done good now we move on to the next project. I’m focusing on Jhalak uh that gets over I get on with my web, so I always take a project like a project. Then I move on to the next one uh I think that’s that’s a happy space to be.”
