The 'dimpled' hunk of Telly Ville aka Shaleen Bhanot is one versatile actor. While talking to us, the actor who is currently seen as Duryodhan in Sony TV's Suryaputra Karan elaborates on his upcoming projects, his craziest fan moment and also the secret behind his fitness!

You have been practically living in the outskirts of Mumbai! How is the experience?

I feel great. It is a whole outdoor shooting. Its a combination of outdoor shooting with a homely feel because they  have given me a flat according to how I exactly want with all the luxury and facilities. But at the same time its very tough because I have habit of eating outside food, having coffee's at mid-night that things I don't get here. Its fun but sometimes I feel like I live in a Bigg boss house. So its both, a good and bad experience

Tell us something about yourself that we don't know?

I am having the same breakfast for past 9 years that is 6 egg white omelette and a paratha with chilli and salt that's it. Its a combination of health with a punjabi tadka.

What's the craziest role you've done in your life so far?

I think the craziest role I have done so far is 'Duryodhan' what I am playing right now. It is damn hilarious and I have to be like a warrior and shout and scream all the time. This character has lots of anger and attitude which I am completely not. I have to wear 13kgs of jewellery and costumes everyday and its not easy.

How has life changed you?

I am a new man all together. I have completely changed because of the luck in my life. I don't know why but I know for sure its for some good reason.

Are you in touch with Dalljiet and your son?

I am not in touch with Dalljiet but I am in touch with my son.

What next for you on the professional front?

As of now I have couple of shows offered, also my movie, Love Ke Funde will be releasing this september.

What's your style statement?

My style statement is my mood. Style lies in your head. Whatever my mood is I wear it.

Describe yourself in one word!

Oxymoron!

One crazy fan experience?

There were couple of aunties who visited my sets few days ago and one of the lady named Geeta was forcing me to say Duryodhan's famous dialogue " Aao Geeta meri Jhangho pe baitho" that's Duryodhan's patent line and that was very funny they were forcing me to say it.

Do you think television as an industry and acting ahs changed in the last few years since you started to now?

TV Industry is really improving its becoming corporate. I think people are now coming to the passion bit of it. There was a style where people went in to the glamour part, but now these days the whole passion and doing some quality part has come back and its feel beautiful.  Even if for now as we are doing a Mythological series, we actually don't shoot it as a typical mythological series and I don't act like a typical mythological character, I act very normal.

Ten years in the industry already. How do you feel?

I feel I am just born and I have only seen 10% of the industry rest 90% is left.

Do you think it's important for actors to have an alternate profession?

Acting itself is a profession, Till the time you take it as a profession you will be happy. Its your job. If you do it well you will feel growing 

Finally a parting line for your fans?

If you guys love me, Love me more!!!

Keep showering all your love.
