Well, I grew up in a joint family with its root in army. My grandfather was a Colonel in the army so I have been brought up in the best possible way with a lot of discipline. Presently, I live in a nuclear family so it’s just me and my parents as I do not have any brothers or sisters.
Tell us something about your journey as a model. How it happened to you?
Well, it was my childhood dream to model and act so after completing my education (I am a double MBA from France & UK), I think now I have time in hand to pursue my dreams.
Don’t you think modeling comes with a very short shelf life? So what plans have you held for yourself?I think it entirely depends on the person. Age is a number for me. I somehow feel that I am destined to make it big, and I am very positive about my life.
What do you like and dislike most about modeling?
Modeling gives you recognition, fame and money. Frankly, I don’t like the casting couch in the industry.
Which projects have you been part of?
I have had walked ramp for quite a few designers. The most memorable is of Bharat & Reshma. Besides I performed at Kingdom of Dreams in an English play in a main lead role. I have recently done a TVC for Reebok with Dhoni, Gambhir and Bruna Abdullah.
How is Udit as a person, which books do you like, what sort of music do you enjoy and all that comprises the most essential part of you other than modeling?
I love
listening to soft soothing songs, mostly Sufi. Well, apart from modeling I am working as an analyst with Standard & Poor’s.What is your greatest achievement till date?
I believe the greatest achievement is yet to come, though I have any many achievements but I believe the best one is yet to come, that makes me work hard for the next achievement.
How do you spend your leisure time?
When not working, or modeling, I love to shop and hang out with my friends.

Style is all about comfort for me. I like my t-shirt and denims.
