From being a boy next door to representing India at Mr World 2016, his journey has been an inspiring
Meet Rohit Khandelwal, the man who has won the prestigious Mr. World title on 19th July, 2016, becoming the first Asian to receive the title.
Rohit Khandelwal: I was bullied a lot during school days and that made me feel I wasn't good enoughModel-actor Rohit Khandelwal, who made his debut with TV show, Million Dollar girl, was recently seen in the music video, 'Bismillah 2' with Surbhi Jyoti. Speaking on the lines of how determination and will power can move mountains, Khandelwal writes, " Turn your vision into Reality , everything seems difficult unless done ." He then goes on to mention how the materialisation of every dream is a tedious-yet-satisfying process and how one has to start from the bottom to make all the way to the top.About his low moments
There were a lot of low moments that I faced in my life but every low moment had something to teach me. Every low moment happened for a reason. There were times when work wasn't happening in Bombay. Low moments were also caused because I stay away from my family and I feel like having someone at this moment also. I feel Mumbai was too fast for me because I come from the 'nawaabi' city, Hyderabad. I have great friends whom I spent a lot of time with, they motivated me to push myself. I just have patience during my low moments. I tell myself, 'Rohit, hold on. These low moments are like those grey clouds, which keep passing on. Just hold on, because on the other side of this phase, there's something good.' I also read a lot of self-help books and that help me understand people because we all go through rough patches in life. There isn't a single person who hasn't experienced a downfall. All the people who have achieved big in life are because of these challenging and low moments.
When I came to Mumbai, the moment I would start talking, I would end up using words like, 'nako, tum kya karre.' People would laugh a lot. I remember when I would give auditions, my Hyderabadi accent would come out there too. Then, I hired a teacher, who taught me about the 'maatraas' (alphabets) and its correct pronunciation. When I was doing the serial, my director would call me 'Hyderabadi' only on the set. When you are doing serials, you can't do lines to lines because there are 16 scenes back-to-back and when I had to do it impromptu, my Hyderabadi used to come out and everybody on the set used to laugh. I had the teacher then, despite my hectic schedule, and now my Hindi is much better. I speak very fluently and don't end up spilling Hyderabadi accent (smiles).
