Why did you choose this career?

Actually, I took it up as a hobby and now it has become my passion. I started my career with Carlsberg and since then I have done quite a number of advertisement down the line.

What are your strengths as a professional?

Well, I guess, this is bragging…(laughs). I am a true model and an actor and I guess this is my plus point and they find it easy to work with me.

What are your career goals?

I want to get focussed on ad campaigns and ultimately become a good actor. Later in life I want to be called a model turned actor, so, I guess, my ultimate goal is to become a successful actor.

Word of advice to young aspirants…

Believe in yourself!

What makes a good model?

Being presentable… I guess, that says it all (laughs). Well, the person has to be confident, charming, well groomed and carry themselves well.
