I was eight-and-a-half years old when I fell in love with Madhuri Dixit in “ Ek Do Teen”. Back then half of the country wanted to be Madhuri Dixit. But I think my parents soon realised that it was not a passing fancy; it was an obsession, some sort of commitment. I hope it’s a lifelong commitment. This is the only thing that I ever wanted to do. I am so grateful that I am living my dream every single day. I never wanted to do anything else. Besides, of course, becoming a tanpura teacher! While I was in school, I attended many classical music concerts and always thought that one of the most important people there was the tanpura player. Since then, I wanted to be a tanpura player. My mom still laughs about it. But, besides that, I always wanted to be an actor.
