I was on the lookout for something different, as I was exhausted with the fiction space. When I was asked to host 'Tujhse Naaraz Nahin Zindagi,' it was not as an actor but as an individual, and on being explained the concept, I found it interesting and accepted it since it was about real people and real life.

'Rangrasiya' was a very special show for me. It played a very important part in shaping up my career. I feel it was a premature end to the show. My character Rudra was very close to my heart.

This journey from non-dancer to dancer has given me a lot of self-confidence and inner strength. I feel like a different person.

If two actors can communicate well during a scene, it works and makes for good chemistry.
Ashish Sharma -
Every role I have played has had a bit of me in them.
Ashish Sharma -
'Siya Ke Ram' is the story of Sita and Ram as two equally strong individuals, and I feel 'Ramayan' is as much as Sita's journey as it is Ram's.
Ashish Sharma -
I respect women but do not necessarily believe that women need to compete with men.
Ashish Sharma -
All the characters in 'Rang Rasiya' are inspired from the Shakespearean drama 'Othello.' This is exactly what interested me to take up this role.
Ashish Sharma -
I choose grey characters, as I enjoy playing a human character. I don't shy away from showing the shortcomings of my characters.

I love period dramas - be it romance or philosophy.
Ashish Sharma -
When I came into television, the serials were all women-centric, while the men had to stand around like furniture. I wasn't willing to be a prop in serials. To my good fortune, I got serials where I was a central character.

Those who aren't actors needn't juggle from lean to bulky and back. It's great to maintain a stable body type. Be consistent in your approach towards fitness.

In Jaipur, I did almost everything from regional theatre to Shakespeare's plays. But when I shifted to Mumbai, I joined Anupam Kher's academy, Actor Prepares,to hone my acting skills.
Ashish Sharma -
There are too many positive and goody male characters on TV, and they work, so its good for them. I feel each to their own. If it works for them, it's fine. I don't connect to such characters, so I won't do them.
Ashish Sharma -
If you see the roles that I've done so far, whether it was Gunahaon ka Devtaa, Chandragupta Maurya, or Rab Se, everything has been starkly different from each other.

I have been a good theatre artiste since my school and college days, but when I participated in 'Cine Stars Ki Khoj,' I realised that I could touch people's hearts when I performed.
Ashish Sharma -
Juggling 'Rangrasiya' and 'Jhalak' at the same time was a big thing. It has made me headstrong.
Ashish Sharma -
We all have this idea of Ram being a patient person besides being a great archer, a horse-rider, and above all, a compassionate king. There is more to him than that.
