01:07you must realize that i take a lot of time to choose a show that i've seen yes i think the reason is that
01:13it's the conviction point that has to come to me yeah or you know vice versa i have to reach the
01:18conviction yeah until unless i'm not convinced with the character i don't really get into it
01:23so pyaar ki kahani was like a total surprise to me how did you enjoy having those vampire fangs
01:31around your teeth did you have fun with those initially it's fun yeah but then you know somebody
01:38tells you to put your fangs on and three o'clock in the night while you're shooting in film city you
01:42know the feeling and intensity that is something it gets taxing after a while but i think
