When asked about how he decided to quit acting and move into medicals, he said, "I never had any connections in the cinema industry. My family believed that it will not be easy to take my passion as a profession. They convinced me to study medicals. With half-hearted, I did the same but somewhere, I missed my acting days in college and school desperately. Now I have made a name in my profession so I thought why not to pursue acting."
When asked will he now quit his practice as a doctor? He said, "How can a doctor skip his duties and responsibilities? I will give time to my patients after the shootings. I have spent a good number of years into the medical field so there is no chance of now quitting it."
