I have a great equation with Gautam: Vibhav Roy

The 'Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan' actor spills the beans

Mumbai: Vibhav Roy will be seen as the lead in Ekta Kapoor’s next, Kuch Toh Hai Tere Mere Darmiyaan. Telling us about how he bagged the show, the handsome actor reveals, “I just finished my last show in June and I took a break and I was travelling abroad with family. My parents are in Delhi and when I was there I got a call from Balaji to audition for this role. Once I came back to Mumbai they called me again and I went for the look test and passed it in 1 go and now I am happily playing Raj Kapoor’s role (my character role in show).”

So how did he get interested in acting and start his acting career? “Watching movies was always my passion. I love it, after I finished my school, my dad sent me to Australia to finish my graduation. I also did my CA from there but the acting ka keeda never left me and I knew I had to come back to pursue my dream of becoming an actor. I wanted to start off with television as it gives you the right kind off exposure required and one day I hope I will enter into main stream cinema as well.

When quizzed about if he had apprehensions since the show has two male leads, he says, “Not at all at the end of the day it’s a daily soap. I have a great equation with Gautam. Both our characters are well defined. While I play the young brat from Jamshedpur, who is constantly flirting with girls and is a wannabe actor, Gautam plays a shy, sophisticated guy in the show.”

Telling us about life off-screen Vibhav says, “It’s pretty boring. I need 8 hours of beauty sleep which is a must for me. I shoot 12 hours a day for this show and with the remaining 4 hours I gym and dance. I try to catch up for a movie every Friday. Rest of the time is consumed by gyming, yoga and dancing. The show had a track where I had to dance and never before have I danced on screen or even off screen. So to keep up the expectation of the audience, I thought of joining dance classes which I now think was a very nice decision as I feel great after dancing. Also, I am big time diet coke addict. I want to give it up but I just cannot. I don’t drink and smoke but this is something I have not been able to give it up completely.”
