"I would like to do something light-hearted:" Sahil Salathia!

Small screen actor Sahil Salathia says that he would like to do something which is light hearted. Sahil made his acting debut with the Ashutosh Gowariker’s show titled “Everest”, where he portrayed the role of a celebrated mountaineer Arjun Sabharwal. He was awarded the Best Fresh Face by the Lion Gold Awards for his performance in the show. Currently, he is waiting for the right movie to debut on the big screen.

In a recent interview, Sahil has worked with Ashutosh Gowariker and Nikkhil Advani for his two shows. Sahil says, “After working with such two big directors I don’t wish to degrade. I want to climb the ladder.” Moreover, he added that he is getting too many offers for the television but none of them is exciting him to do a show. Sahil said, “After my fans have seen me in quality projects, it won’t be right for them to see me in some daily soap. I don’t want to say meaningless dialogues or do meaningless characters on TV. I want to cater to an intelligent audience.”

Sahil was last seen playing the role of a character of Yusuf in POW. He is exploring his work choices and he says that he is not eager to make a comeback. He says, “I’m working on something, so I’ll be back soon. I don’t work for money; I work for respect, so I didn’t wish to rush into things. I don’t believe in daily soaps so I would never do them.”

He has been the face of more than 50 brand campaigns, amongst the top models in the country. He can not be choosy about his modelling assignment because modelling assignments keep his house fire burning.

But as an actor, he believes that he is an absolute joker and an overgrown kid, Sahil said, “I’m like a sixth-grade kid, who is currently single but ready to mingle.”

About his Instagram diaries and his fashion sense, which is taking point on the social media. On this, he says, “Style is inbuilt in me. It’s not a conscious decision that I have taken. I’m completely moody, so there are days when I’ll walk out of my place like a homeless person. Then there are times when I’m in tuxedos. However, I would never turn up wearing a skirt and call it fashion. My fashion sense is more classic than gimmicky.”

When asked that what kind of roles he would like to enact, he said, “I want to do everything. I have done grey roles as of now. So I would like to do something light-hearted, which will be close to what I’m in real life. At the same time I would love to play iconic characters like Devdas or Gandhi where there is room for a lot of homework.”
