Hi Abhishek! When was the first time you realized/understood the significance/ importance of Valentine's Day?
The first time I realized the importance of Valentine's Day was when I was in college and everyone was planning to go on dates, but I was blank as I didn't know what they were planning for. Later I discover, this (Valentine's Day) is also just like a festival.

Who was your first Valentine? Please be honest… Honesty appreciated…
I had never been on Valentine's date as of now … specifically on Valentine's Day.

Do you think that the concept of Valentine's Day has been misinterpreted?
I believe Valentine's Day is the festival we celebrate with love and with loved ones. But everyone here must understand the honesty and purity of it.

Can you recall your most memorable Valentine's Day?
No, the only thing I recall is watching TV or attending school or college.

What type of Valentine are you? Card-Roses types/ romantic poems types or the candlelight dinner types? Or is there anything besides these?
I am more of a card-roses type.

Has anyone rejected your Valentine's Day proposal or have you rejected any Valentine's Day proposal?
I have never asked anyone to be my Valentine! So, I never got rejected. (smiles)

If you had to choose a Bollywood celebrity as your Valentine, whom would you choose and why?
It would be Kiara Advani! But, I think now she already has one Valentine for life. (smiles) I would like to convey my best wishes and regards to the two of them.

It's a given that you will have many admirers. In that case, have you ever received any card or gift from a secret admirer? If yes, what was it and what was your reaction to it?
No, I have never received any cards, it's sad.

In your opinion, is Valentine's Day the most romantic day of the year?
It is the most romantic day of the year, but… one should not just be limited to this day to show how romantic one can be.

Valentine's Day is about love and Cupid. Have you ever played Cupid in anyone's life? Or has anyone played Cupid in your life?
I might have been a supportive friend and played Cupid, but I believe that love is an eternal emotion and one should just be honest about it.
