Intimate Enquires with Aftab Shivdasani

 




Current teen icons, Aamir, Salman and Shah Rukh, albeit boyish, are all hovering around 35! Adolescent girls needed a younger, new poster boy and Aftab Shivdasani, the star of Ram Gopal Verma's Mast, has proved to be just the ticket.

What is in your wallet right now?

My house keys, my license, my small telephone directory, my ID card and 500 rupees.

Are you religious?

I beleive in God but not in any divisions on caste and religious lines. I believe in humanity. I pray to God to make me a stronger human being. He responds in his own way. One way I guess is by giving me Mast.

When was the last time you cried?

When my naani died a couple of years ago.

What do you do when you feel lonely?

I am a loner but I am rarely lonely. If I am, I listen to some music. I like Enigma, Deep Forest and Yanni.

Are you thin-skinned about criticism?

I love criticism before I get compliments. Negative feedback is necessary, it tells you where there is scope for improvement.

Do spirits put you in high spirits?

I drink only once in a while.

What do you sleep in?

Pyjamas.

What are your drawbacks?

I am emotional, I trust too easily but I am learning to get a grip on my emotions. If anybody says something nasty about me I get hurt easily. But thankfully I have the ability to bounce back.
