Model Sahil Shroff is the man of the moment. Currently on the brink of making the big move from the ramp to the silver screen, this Mumbai-based hunk is a fixture at fashion weeks. Here, in a tete-a-tete with rediff.com, he gets candid about his career, personal life and a few of his favourite things.
How I got into modelling: It wasn't something I got into consciously. I have always been a sportsperson and used to model during my college days in Mumbai. I had to leave college and travel to Australia (where I grew up) to be with my family. When I returned I began getting offers, one thing led to another and before I knew it I was a model!
The golden rules of the business: Be true to yourself and never try too hard.

Personal sense of style: European, wearable and stylish.
Serious actor, sex symbol or model: Serious actor, definitely.
My perfect day: That would be starting with a good breakfast, being airlifted to work (so I avoid the Mumbai traffic), four hours of work, followed by a dinner with the family and a night out with friends and the ladies!
My passion: Acting. I am looking at making my debut in films.
