“I am doing the best kind of work on Television”:Gautam Rode
Actor turned anchor Gautam Rode in conversation with us…
You are currently seen anchoring Nach Baliye 5 with Karan Wahi. Tell us about your experience?
The experience is good, it is going on well and we have got a good response.
Who is your favourite judge amongst the three of them
and why?
All three are good in their own ways, so I cant pick one. All of them have different qualities. They are fun to work with and the good part about them is that they all are very chilled out in nature. It doesn’t feel like they are judges because of their personalities. We address them as ‘jee’ and ‘aap’ because they are senior to us.
A lot is being spoken about your upcoming show with Jennifer Singh Grover on Star Plus. Tell us about it.
The show will be on air soon as we have already started shooting for it.
If offered would you be a part of the Bigg Boss house?
My policy is never say never. My thinking doesn’t really fit in Bigg Boss. However it is all about the kind of work you are doing. I am happy doing what I currently am. I am doing the best kind of work on television. I am doing non fiction and fiction both on the number one channel.
Currently reality shows are trending. What is your take on them?
They are going well. I think every show is getting a good response, be it Bigg Boss Season 6 or India’s Got Talent. Our show Nach Baliye 5 got the highest TRP for a non fiction show on television and became No. 1. People are accepting it and liking it too. You should be positive with shows, put a little bit of humour and people will go for it.
Your favourite movie that you have recently seen?
Paan Singh Tomar was good.
Which is the favourite occasion of the year for you?
Diwali and New Year both of these are fun and you get more holidays too.
Your nickname?
I have many nicknames. Everyone has a different name for me. Friends cut it short and call me Gauti, Gotu, Rode, Road etc.
You are obsessed about?
Workout.
