“At the moment, I’m filming for Taaza Khabar, and I am excited to see how it comes together. I will soon commence the Dhindora journey again with my characters. But I’m really looking forward to getting an opportunity to bag my debut Hindi film with a dream team. I didn’t expect this Taaza Khabar of mine to become such a big Dhindora. I don’t look at it as a materialistic win but a result & reward of patience & whatever little efforts I have put in the last 10 years of my professional journey.”

It is something I want to live in for the next one-and-a-half years. I want to build it. I want to keep it as private as possible.”
