Are you like Anand Diwan in real life?
Not really. However the naughtiness Anand Diwan is in me.

What do you like about Anand Diwan?
I like Anand Diwan’s naughtiness and mischief, the activities he does at home and his body language too.

What do you dislike about Anand Diwan?
I don’t like the attitude he throws. He often hasn’t behaved well with his mom. However his brother Anand Chopra has taught him not to be rude with his mom.

How is your real brotherly relationship similar/ different from that on the show?
Very similar.

What do you friends and teachers tell you when they see you act?
Most of my friends have been quite appreciative. Some friends are jealous of us. However most of the students praise our work and often start chanting, “The Anand brothers- Kunal and Siddhi’s sons have come,” when we enter class. Our teachers were pleasantly surprised when we got these roles as they didn’t expect the quiet boys in their class to act on Parichay.

How do you manage school and studies?
Initially it was difficult for us to juggle between the two, however now we can manage both well.

How are your grades at school?
I score in nineties.

What do you want to be when you grow up?
A doctor or an actor. My father Prashant Jyotir is also an actor.
