"Next year you will see more of me on-screen..."

says Rajeev Khandelwal, the handsome dude who has a massive fan following as he talks about his career and more…

The dashing actor - Rajeev Khandelwal is busy celebrating his birthday today and just like all his earlier birthdays he is busy receiving the innumerable messages from his fans. Currently, Rajeev is waiting for his upcoming release Ishq Actually which has him play a pivotal character and the film has been widely appreciated in the Berlin Film festival. 

However, here he talks to TellyBuzz about his special day today and in his usual excited tone Rajeev says, "Birthdays are the busiest days for me and so it was today too. I received almost 300 calls and spoke to my fans since morning and then I saw that I had missed almost 700 calls! I had to ultimately switch off my phone for some time and now I'm checking my mail," and adds that he is sitting amidst cards, bouquets and gifts that have been pouring in since morning. 

Rajeev's parents too are here from Jaipur to be with the birthday boy and Rajeev is happy with all the attention that he is getting, "I am happy to have my parents with me today but they are feeling a bit left out since I have been busy taking calls from my fans all day. My house has become like a museum and while my mom is used to seeing all this, my maasi who has come visiting for the first time is overwhelmed by the love of my fans. She also cannot believe that I have won so many awards and trophies and is happy for me."

Apart from all the love that his fans keep on showering on him Rajeev says they also want to see more of him, "While my fans are happy with whatever work I take up there only other demand is that they want to see me more. Even I want to do more work but it is just that sometimes things don't work your way and our calculations go wrong. However, I am sure that next year they will see more of me as I am doing lots of work now."

Rajeev who is seen doing selective work when it comes to Films says that even now he gets offers for Television. Was any offer tempting enough for him to accept? "Well to be honest now that producers know that I am focusing on Films they don't come to me with fiction show offers, but there was one such offer which came to me and I thought it was a different concept but they needed me to dedicate almost six months for the shoot which would have hampered my film shoots so I could not do it. However, all said and done there are still some producers who come to me with ambitious projects which have different kind of concepts. When it comes to reality shows, I don't participate in reality shows at all. I also get offers for hosting too since I have already hosted Sach ka Saamna and other shows."

So is Rajeev happy with the way his career has shaped up and the choice of roles - whether in TV or Films? "Yes, of course. When I look back I feel that I have been widely appreciated on TV and accepted in Films too so what more do I want? I have won the love of fans and so many awards too so definitely I am happy with the way my career has shaped up," says Rajeev who was popular for his shows on Indian Television like Kahiin Toh Hoga, Left Right Left and went on to be appreciated for his performance in films like Aamir and Shaitaaan.

Well, just like his very many fans, we too wish to see more of Rajeev on screen... till then we wish him a very Happy Birthday and a great life ahead!
