In an interview, he said,
Just seven days after my arrival in Mumbai on May 7, 2016, I realized that I was in love with Shubhi. His absence for six days made me realize his importance in my life. Before, I wasn’t sure if I had time for love because I wanted to focus on work. It’s easy to feel tempted, especially in this industry and with so many beautiful faces around. But, I never gave up, because I couldn’t risk a lifetime of happiness for something trivial. Shubhi was there for me when I needed her the most. He not only supported me emotionally, but also financially.”

I knew I wanted to be an actor and started working towards it. I took a transfer to Pune so that I could easily go to Mumbai for the audition. I joined a theater group so I could polish my skills. But when I was in Pune nothing materialized. That’s when my friends from the industry told me that I should move to Mumbai. It was a big decision, but I decided to go ahead with it. I came to Mumbai in 2016. My family supports me mentally and financially so that I can do what I want
