What was your funniest memory on the runway?
I was walking on the ramp when my shoes tore and came off. The funny thing is, the shoes remained on the stage till the event ended!
What do you think about when you’re in front of the camera?
When I look into the camera, I think this is my very last work.
How do you deal with criticism?
I try to take them positively; however, most of the time I’m indifferent about them.
Was there ever a time when you didn’t enjoy doing a shoot?
Times when I had to wake up super early in the morning; they aren’t exactly enjoyable!
Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
I see myself as a successful businessman.
How do you think models are received by people?
I think models and celebrities are both loved and envied at the same time.
What’s your fitness regime?
I go to gym for 3 days and I do cardio for 3 days then rest for a day. I’ve also started running these days.
Three tips you’d give to newbies who are facing the camera?
Remember these three things.

- Always be smart
- Be versatile.
Your most favourite cheat day meal?
I love pizza.
Favourite brands you’d recommend for your fans?
You should try the recent Panjabi collections of Aarong. I also would recommend denim pants from Freeland. I wear them myself; also, floral printed shirts from Yellow are a great choice!
What’s your go-to wear for an audition?
It depends on what the audition is. If it’s corporate I would opt for a neat suit or formal look. If it’s casual, I would dress casually. If it’s normal, I may not even turn up!

I like to listen to soft Bollywood songs when I’m feeling down; especially the ones by Arijit Singh.
What is your best pick up line?

Not anytime soon for sure! I have been in a relationship for 6 years; that’s a long time and we don’t usually think about breaking up.
Your favourite breakup song?
