I heard many people are curios to know more abt me.........Here is my CANDID profile..... _________________ I WAS---------------- Born on 9 June 1964 in Mission Hospital, Palpa. Siblings Three sisters (all doctors) and a brother. Schooling from Moscow, higher education (MA in English) from Punjab University, India. Studied in Nepal for a year at St Xavier's School in grade eight. Hobby I used to collect badges with pins. Now, I buy books on filmmaking. Fell in love at age 17 with a 22-year-old Indian girl. It was serious. The affair lasted for nearly three years. Later, her parents married her off to someone else. Still single because in the first 10 years of my film career, I didn't have much time for anything else. Anyway, I don't think that I ought to get married because I'm of marrying age. I'm quite comfortable being single. First modelled for Fashion Net, an Indian fashion magazine in 1985; walked the ramp in Kathmandu and New Delhi in 1986.First acted in Yug Dekhi Yug Samma, a film my uncle made in 1990. My parents were disappointed with my career choice. In one year, on an average, I work on 10 to 12 films. The maximum was 16 films in 1994. Till date I've worked in 177 Nepali films and one Pakistani movie. Favourite films I've appeared in are Devata and Basanti. At leisure I watch the news on BBC, CNN and other news channels, read non-fiction books and biographies. No particular favourite author. I like to think, look back and look ahead at my life. Pet I have a dog, Johnny. Sports I love to play tennis and swim. I work out a lot, lifting weights and practising yoga, I have a gym at home. Also, I jog everyday. I travel to foreign countries once every year at least. Japan is my favourite destination because of its unique mix of traditional and modern culture. Hairstyle I've always had long hair. As a child, I used to wear a cap to bed so my hair wouldn't be unkempt the next morning. Now, I just shampoo and oil it. Once, I shaved my head because my father didn't believe I had my hair trimmed. Fashion statement Whatever is not in fashion and not too loud or colourful. I prefer solid colours – black, grey, and dark blue. Faith I believe in God but am not a fanatic about what the scriptures say. I believe more in the power of spirituality. Fear of heights, I'm acrophobic. For a recent movie scene, I couldn't bungee jump so the stuntman had to do it for me. Nightmare This actually happened during a fight scene. I was wielding a real sword when it came out of its hilt and hit the cameraman. He lost four of his teeth. Planning to get into filmmaking and make a movie this year with self as actor and director.
