Kumar Gaurav: Good guys always win

Kumar Gaurav's honesty can take you by surprise. The man talks about work, family and Sanjay Dutt.

He had the right lineage , the right connections and yet he drifted away from Bollywood. But Kumar Gaurav has been always visible, as the son of Rajendra Kumar and son-in-law of Sunil Dutt. But why does he keep away from media? 

He answers with honesty that can surprise you, "It is no conscious decision. As I am not doing anything, what is the point of talking to media ? I can only talk if I have something worthy to say." 

So, the talk obviously veers towards his acting career. He has not been seen on-screen after Kaante 2002? "Very soon you will see me in a children's film, My Daddy Strongest (2009). It is a beautiful film on the father-son relationship and I loved doing it," says Kumar Gaurav. Did he draw on his own relationship with his father to do the role? "More than my relationship with my Dad, it gave me a new perspective on my relationship with my children . I have two daughters and I have new insights into my relationship with them now," he says. 

Talking about his daughters, he says with childlike enthusiasm, "We spend crazy times together. I take them out on holidays a¦ mostly for scuba diving." He turns serious as he discusses Sanjay Dutt's predicament. "Sanju is my best buddy apart from being a relative. I am relieved that he has got bail. God has been great and we are all praying hard. I know that good guys always win and Sanju is a gem of a guy. Not just me, everyone who knows him says this," he says.

He speaks of the experience in rather staccato bursts, as if unwilling to discuss a career noted, more than anything else, for its massive run of ill luck.
