Jai, when was the first time you realized / understood the significance/ importance of Valentine's Day?
I wanted to propose someone when I was in my seventh standard. I was crazy about a particular girl.
Who was your first Valentine? Please be honest⦠Honesty appreciatedâ¦
To be honest, I was dating a girl when I was in seventh standard!
Do you think that the concept of Valentine's Day has been misinterpreted?
For me, every day is a Valentine's Day. I can be with my special someone, I can share my feelings and thoughts with her. I just cannot wait for 14th Feb. But, on Valentine's Day, you can try and make your girl feel a little more special than the other day. Every day you should make your girl/ guy feel special.

Can you recall your most memorable Valentine's Day?
I don't know about my most memorable Valentine's Day. But, I usually use to get scared thinking what if a girl comes and ties a rakhi to me! That's why I used to skip Valentine's Day during school and college! (laughs heartily).
What type of a Valentine are you? Card-Roses types/ romantic poems types or the candle light dinner types? Or is there anything besides these?
I am a very romantic guy. I really want to make my girl feel very special by taking her out for a dinner or do something which she will appreciate. I can write for her, can give her crazy surprises just to see smile on her face I can do anything to make her feel special.
Has anyone rejected your Valentine's Day proposal or have you rejected any Valentine's Day proposal?
I have actually not proposed many. I have rejected girls's proposals in a decent way, by giving honest opinions that I am not ready for commitment as of now.
Do you have any special plans for this year's Valentine's Day?
I just might be shooting. You never know⦠(smiles). But, as I said everyday is a Valentine's Dayâ¦

It's a given that you will definitely 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?
I have received so many gifts, and at times there is no name written or anything like that⦠I feel good and at the same time, I try to convey messages to people that I don't think it is necessary to send gifts but their way of showing love. So, I am really grateful and thankful to them. People do appreciate the role I do and compliment me by saying you are a perfect husband material.
In your opinion, is Valentine's Day the most romantic day of the year?
In my opinion, everyday is a Valentine's Day. Every day is a romantic Day & every year is very special.
What's your idea of a perfect Valentine's Day date?
Just spend time with that person the entire day and share your feelings with her. Do everything for each other which will remain with you guys forever as a memory and try to understand each other better.
