On playing Gaurav in the show

It is fun, it has been just a few days. I am really excited and looking forward to it. It has always been fun. I started of with Veera and last year I was doing Titli so TV has always been fun. 6 months back I was doing Mera Balam Thanedaar but that was purely a negative role and this is completely opposite, he is all innocent and completely in love with Purvi. So it feels like a change.
Devish's take on his character


On managing shooting with mom vs doing it all on his own

I started with Veera, then I did Mahabharat and back then my mom used to travel with me from Surat, Kharghar and wherever we would be. I used to live in Surat and later we shifted to Mumbai because of acting. So my mom used to be with me everywhere. Now, I have to look after everything on my own. Earlier, Mom would make everything seamless. I didn't have to worry about the bills and lunch breaks before. One thing I learned is that childhood was much better. Now, there are more responsibilities.

Juggling between studies and acting since childhood

Back then it was very difficult, I used to travel from Surat for Veera and then I used to go to Umbergaon for Mahabharat. We were then staying at my Mama's place in Navi Mumbai. So I remember for 3 months I was eating, sleeping and studying in the car. I was practically doing my chores while travelling. And it was quite difficult to juggle all of it.
