  Acting was not for me. I would spend my vacations with my grandfather Raj Kapoor, travelling with him for film shoots. When I was about 10-11, I had a crush on a few of his heroines. But the film world didn’t interest me. I dabbled in modelling on the insistence of friends. But, looking back, it is something that embarrasses me deeply.”
