Prefer being single at the moment: Param Singh

Actor Param Singh and his last coactor, Akshita Mudgal, may have cleared the air multiple times, but speculations about their alleged relationship don’t seem to cease. “Akshita is like my bro-buddy,” Singh quips, adding, “We are extremely close friends. She is the girl I hang out with, but that’s it. I’m absolutely single at the moment. In fact, I’m best friends with all my female friends.”

The two did a show called Ishk Par Zor Nahi, which ran for a short duration but led to viewers shipping the two in real life. “I have become that guy, who you’d think is dating every other girl, but I’m not. I’m absolutely okay with it. I prefer being single at the moment and all my focus has been on my work,” the actor shares.

Singh, 33, and Mudgal, 18, have romanced on screen despite their age gap, and that doesn’t bother Singh. “I don’t think anyone should be offended by the age gap. I can only speak about myself. I have a certain screen age, I look pretty young. So, it is imperative for makers to pair me with someone who looks my age. I’ve been paired with Mahima (Makwana, actor) in the past when she was 18, even Akshita was 18 when we did the show. I feel what the makers look for is chemistry, and that is all,” he explains.

On the work front, Singh admits that he has “been stereotyped.” “All the characters I’ve been offered are the broody guys. I would love to play a cute guy next door. But I guess broody guys are working on television right now,” he concludes.

I have become that guy, who you’d think is dating every other girl, but I’m not. I’m absolutely okay with it. All my focus has been on my work lately. PARAM SINGH,

Actor
