About Sharhaan Singh:
Having a family from a non-filmy background, Sharhaan never thought he will make it in the industry as an actor. He always aspired to be a cricketer but, as he grew up he tried acting and modeling and that became a turning point in his life. Sharhaan hails from the city of Patiala, Punjab and currently resides in Mumbai.
Sharhaan never thought he would get into acting, his intense passion of watching movies made him steal money from his house.
His family knew this fact but they never yelled at him as Sharhaan was academically good and the family took this excuse as his innocent mischief.
Sharhaan’s childhood:
Sharhaan’s cousin got the first VCR in their locality when they were kids. The interest to watch films emerged from there. The siblings and cousins would sit together and watch movies almost every week. However, Sharhaan took the interest intensely and as he grew up the passion for acting increased.
As a student, he has participated in many SKITs, dance competitions, singing contests, and Drama plays. When he shifted to college, he started taking care of his looks seriously. Sharhaan completed his MA in Theatre.
Sharhaan Singh’s acting journey:
Being a multi-talented artist, Sharhaan has tried every subject related to films, music, and entertainment. He has tried singing, dancing, direction, writing, and dubbing. Well, that only gives a hint that he aims to be an all-rounder if he ever gets into production.
To share a fact, he did a dubbing for Amitabh Bachchan for an advertisement at a fee of INR 500 which was a big thing during those days.
What, where, why, when and how with Sharhaan Singh:
Shruti Sharma: How supportive was your family with your interest in modeling/acting?
Sharhaan Singh: I have always been the decision maker of my life Shruti. My family has remained cool with every decision taken by me.
Shruti Sharma: The influence of drug addiction and alcoholism has been massive in Punjab, what are your thoughts about it?
Sharhaan Singh: Punjab has always been a victim of drugs. Fortunately, I have been raised in a very supportive family that has guided me consistently to stay away from such addictions. I have great self-control. You get a lot of chances but, what you choose depends on it. For example: Suicide is your own choice; no one forces you to do that. Fortunately, I keep myself so busy that addictions and frustrations have no room in my space.
Shruti Sharma: Do you believe in future planning or you believe in ‘go with the flow’ theory?
Sharhaan Singh: I believe we must not corrupt our future with insecurities. I am myself nervous in doing things because I want to be good.
I learned one thing from an astrologer; ‘Don’t help people around you; help people who are not around’.
– Sharhaan Singh
Shruti Sharma: I know by now that there isn’t a single subject you haven’t experienced but, what would be your personal preference – Acting, Modeling, or Direction?
I would always want to be a ‘one man show.’
– Sharhaan Singh
Sharhaan Singh: From supervising the project to acting in it, I wish to be fully involved in anything I do. The more I experiment with these things; I learn something new every time.
Shruti Sharma: How has your experience been in this industry?
Sharhaan Singh: Considering the industry I live in, people don’t like to take advices. Remember, whatever we do in life, it all comes in use in future. I am learning every day and it has been a great experience.
Shruti Sharma: Are you scared of taking negative roles as an actor?
Sharhaan Singh: Generally, people are scared to take negative roles; I am not. I have learnt and experienced every single thing related to acting and modeling. If you continue to do well in personal life, it doesn’t get unnoticed in your professional life. So what roles you perform do not matter.
Shruti Sharma: What message would you like to pass to the readers and your loved ones?
Sharhaan Singh:
Be positive towards whatever you do and have faith.
I strongly want to pass a message to the bikers. The bikers must take care of how they handle their vehicles. They must never overtake from left, follow a normal speed, and always wear a helmet.

May you rise to the limitless sky and make others inspired by your work. Please remain the same optimistic personality always as you are. My best wishes are with you.
