Roop Durgapal

When at home, I pray to all forms of Goddess Durga for health, wealth, peace, and prosperity for me and my family.

I always felt that, as an actor, I should play a variety of roles rather than just sticking to one kind & getting typecast.

If something is done without objectifying, it can be beautiful.

I was pushed into Zumba by one of the trainers in my gym. He saw me looking inside the Zumba room, so he told me to just go and start.

Zumba is so energising and refreshing. It's totally fun. My face turns red at the end of the session, and I feel like I am ready to take over the world.

I have several Gujarati friends in Mumbai, and I keep eating from their tiffin boxes whenever we meet. I love Gujarati food!

I am very outspoken, can be pretty stubborn at times and also very straightforward. I am pretty outgoing and love partying.

I love the affection that people in Gujarat shower artists with.

I would love to do a love story or a socially relevant drama. Something on the lines of Netflix originals. I would love to explore the big screen, too.

When I read in newspapers that farmers are dying because of water shortage, I felt deeply pained that we have best of everything, yet we complain so much, whereas there are people who do not even have access to basic necessities of life.

I have a long way to go as far as my acting career is concerned. Lots of milestones are to be achieved and dreams to be fulfilled. I would someday want to do playback singing, too, as I am a very passionate singer.

I am not taking home any of the characters I play on screen.
