When asked, “What has been the major reason for you to say yes?” Anuj retorted, “I started my career with a reality show, Roadies. I was itching to do another reality show where I would get to learn something new. Since I have never been a dancer, this was a challenge worth taking up.”
Given that the theme of Nach Baliye 9 is slightly different from the earlier ones, Anuj Sachdeva revealed how much time did he take to give a nod. He stated, “Well, it did take some thinking. But then I was like as Urvashi and I have been friends for years it was comfortable to say yes. Also, I did not think too much about the theme or what people would decipher, I just wanted to do a dance show simple as that.”

Different but pretty interesting.” (Also Read: Faisal Khan Celebrated GF, Muskaan Kataria's Birthday On Nach Baliye 9 Set, Posts A Lovely Wish)
Earlier in an interview with BollywoodLife, Urvashi Dholakia had talked about her personal life and had said, "My personal life has actually been an open book in one way, but on the other side, it has also been a mystery. And I like it that way. I don't like speculations, I'd rather like people coming up to me and asking me. And you'll have to give me the liberty if I'm willing to talk about it at the moment. It's my prerogative to answer anything in my personal life."
Speaking about her ex-baliye, Anuj Sachdeva, Urvashi Dholakia had shared, "With me and my Baliye, the case is that we both are mature enough to understand that it didn't work out and we still respect each other. One thing didn't go wrong and you can't clap with one hand. So, it was a mutual thing, we both were wrong and right at some point in time. Whatever went wrong is for me to know and I'm not the kinds to wash my dirty linen in public. No matter what happened between us, we are still friends."
In an interview with the IANS, Urvashi Dholakia had revealed that with the participation on Nach Baliye 9, she is not looking forward to giving her relationship with ex, Anuj Sachdeva a second chance. Urvashi was quoted as saying, "If a chapter is over, it is not necessary to reopen those pages. Why not start a new chapter and build a new relation? I believe two people who were in a relationship can remain good friends. There is nothing wrong with that. I am not in my twenties, so I do think a little differently now. I believe in mature living and don't like to hold grudges. Sometimes you have to move on to find happiness in life. That's what I did. I am participating in the show with my ex but it does not mean that I am giving a second chance to the relationship. One has to understand that I come from a different school of thought."
