In such a situation, I fell in love with an English medium school girl named, ‘Kavita Kapoor’. However, when I was about to confess my feelings, she challenged me to fluently say, ‘Kavita Kapoor I love you’ which was next to impossible. I wasn’t able to pronounce the initial letter of her name ‘क’ (ka). Unfortunately, I couldn’t complete the challenge and ended up saying, ‘Tavita Tapoor I don’t love you’.”

The veteran actor later revealed that how with marble speech therapy treatment, he was finally able to get over his weakness of stammering after 3 years. Further in the show he even confessed that due to his poor English, he couldn’t impress his childhood crush.
