“My transformation happened within two years of time- that’s when I lost weight. I remember the days after my college, I had worked for Spicejet, Dell & HSBC & I was interested in acting and modelling, but i never got an opportunity to come to Bombay. I have been a person who used to hog junk food which was very difficult for me to stop. As i mentioned, I am extremely disciplined and my determination is very strong. So i knew that one day I need to stop all this & have a control over it”

“Being sexy has something to do with charm. It is not just about wearing good clothes or a good hairstyle, it is about the way you interact with people, the kind of words you use, the conversation you strike, your sensibility & the knowledge, all this comprises sexiness. For a person who’s physically fit describes how much discipline he has given to his body, food & his lifestyle, so a good physique definitely adds a huge factor in one’s style quotient”
