I believe you can make your better half feel special on any given day and turn it in Valentine's Day.

As a person, I am not really someone who would intervene and tell you to do the right thing.
It's important for fans to follow only verified accounts of actors. For instance, I am not on Facebook, but I know that many people are running accounts on my name, claiming to be me. Young girls end up liking such dubious pages and get swayed by the activities that happen there.
There is no formula for winning any show. One just has to be at ease and mentally stable.
I have proved myself as a complete package, so people can be more confident about investing in me, and I do expect a little more trust from the industry members.
I believe that a web series allows actors the freedom to express their views.
I never chose something just for the money.
As an actor, you should always keep your trump card hidden from your audience. I want the audience to keep expecting more and more from me. I want to do 'different' work - good and memorable roles - so that audience appreciate me more. That's why I love to surprise my audience with something they never expect me to do.
I don't follow brands religiously, but there are certain brands I feel comfortable wearing, like H&M and Zara.
I bought a trench coat from Dubai worth 495 dirham.
I would not want to be a part sass-bahu sagas. These are not realistic, and it gets tough for me to relate to my role.
'I Can Do That' has been the most challenging show of my life, and the result has been overwhelming. It is good to know I will be in the history as the first winner of the season of the show.
I'm extremely delighted to host the special show 'Dussehra - Jeet Sachchai Kee', which will celebrate the spirit of good over evil. The show will be filled with a heavy dose of entertainment as renowned celebrities from across popular television shows will be joining in the celebrations and saluting the spirit of righteousness.
I'd rather say that had the going not been tough, perhaps it wouldn't have been as enjoyable.
I would not really be a part of something that doesn't interest me.
I am a workaholic and can do four things at a time.
Cross fit, callisthenics, and weight training are a regular part of my workout regime. It's helped me a lot with my stamina, agility, and movement.
Fashion, for me, is comfort. It is the most important thing for me.
I am all for TV, but I want to be part of shows that stand out.
I've been always clear that I wouldn't do TV soaps just for the sake of doing them. I would rather wait and work on projects which enable me to make an impact.
Popularity matters a lot, as at the end of the day, the love of your audiences can make you win.
I feel that people who think it's okay to barely eat are wrong. There has to be a good balance of diet, food, and workout for your body to stay in good shape, always!
Doing 'YHA' felt as if I was shooting for a film because it was a love story with a definite ending and good script.
Social media has helped bridge the gap between actors and fans. We are blessed to get so much love, good wishes, and support from people across the world.
Our fans wanted us to be together way before we even realised that we had feelings for each other. Our fans helped us win a dance reality show, and so we decided to share our love with those who have made us who we are.
I really love all my fans and would never want anything wrong happening to them.
There are some disheartening days where I don't get to eat my favourite sweets, but my diet has to be followed.
Be it 'Jhalak', 'Dance India Dance' or 'Nach Baliye', I give all the credit to Ekta Kapoor as, just because of her, I am here. She has an eye to identify the real talent. Instead, I would say she knows how to make things work for her. She is not simply called the queen of Indian Television: she is the tigress of TV, I would say.
My name is not really a common one, but people always tend to mix it up, which is quite embarrassing! As there have been incidents where I would be all ready to go on stage for my performance, and the host would say, 'Ladies and gentlemen please welcome Mr Rithik.' And, I would have to remind them that it isn't Rithik but Rithvik!
Even when I was in Dubai, I used to host small birthday parties, events, and lots more to make money of my own to fulfil my wish to become an actor. I didn't take any money from my parents to fulfil my dream.
I follow an extremely strict diet counting my calorie intake, keeping in mind a very balanced ratio of proteins, carbs, and fats.
The feeling of actually being with someone you love at that moment is completely different than a video afterwards.
Even when I interact or meet my fans during events, I let them know of my actual Twitter handle so that they are not taken advantage of by anybody online pretending to be me.
'Aye Zindagi' is a show which is about stories inspired by real-life incidents. You might be able to relate to these stories, as it can be about anyone around you.
Be it 'Dare 2 Dance', 'Man vs. Job', or 'I Can Do That', I have always taken up projects that is innovative. I want to try out different things, as that gets me going.
'Bigg Boss' is one show that I can never be a part of. I am very restless as a person, so keeping me locked won't be a good idea.
I love being an anchor, as it gives you a chance to be yourself.
In a fantasy show, you can't be random with creative ideas. So that is a drawback for our industry. Since it is daily, with fantasy shows, you need to stick to the script. If you don't, it will become saas-bahu show.
I personally adore the festival of Dussehra, as its a celebration of our culture and mythological legacy. I celebrate, almost, all my festivals with Life OK, be it Holi or Diwali or Dussehra. It's like a festive home for me.
Love is not just about love for your girlfriend, boyfriend, husband, or wife. Love, for me, is the love for my work, family, and even friends. The emotion is very strong. It comes with a lot of responsibilities.
I love the fact that people love my work, and they love me as who I am. I think I am pretty blessed, and I am glad I am in this position, and I am really happy about that.
I think I have balanced hosting and acting pretty well.
I adopted a pet because I have been wanting one for the longest time. In fact, I am really close to Ravi Dubey's dog Moyo.
The only pressure you put on yourself is the one you want to. No one else can pressurise you.
As an actor, I feel there isn't much to explore on TV. So, if I get better work as a host, why wouldn't I do it?
I had this one dear friend in college who was a chain smoker. His smoking habits led him to major health problems. That's the time I remember telling him to let go. And after a point, he did listen to me and gave up smoking.
I never thought I would end up wearing heels someday.
One of the major things in any dance-based reality show is how smartly you can impress the audience and keep your cool throughout the show.
Dancing has always helped in keeping my fitness levels high. When I was in school and college, I used to dance a lot. It helped me stay healthy.
I'd like to be part of out-of-the-box films like 'Shahid.' I see myself being part of realistic cinema.
