Rahul Sharma's 'eye-opening' experience

Actor Rahul Sharma, currently seen in TV show "Kaal Bhairav Rahasya", has shed weight for his role and says it was an eye-opening journey for him.

"The journey has been life-changing. We do not realise how much we ignore our body sometimes. But since I was determined to become fit, I paid close attention to everything -- from the food I eat, to the hours of sleep I get. I must say, it was an eye-opening journey," Rahul said in a statement.

"I'm more in touch with myself than ever -- emotionally, physically and spiritually. I feel I can finally join the wagon of people who worship and treat their bodies like temple," he added.

Rahul is seen alongside Chhavi Pandey and Sargun Kaur in the Star Bharat show.

Honeymoon comes later, work is worship: Gaurav Sharma

Actor Gaurav Sharma, who got married in Goa on October 30, says he is yet to go for a honeymoon as he started shooting for his show "Deewane Anjane" a few days after his marriage.

"There are people who plan holidays after getting married. But in my case, honeymoon comes later, work is worship," Gaurav said in a statement.

"I had already signed the show 'Deewane Anjane' before my wedding and I was pretty sure about the dates I had to start shooting, so it comes with no surprise, but (was) my own decision.

"In fact, I had a destination wedding in Goa. That doubled up the excitement level and it was a kind of a mini vacation. The role of Laxman is very exciting and I am happy to be a part of the series," he added.

"Deewane Anjane" is aired on BIG Magic.
