Rajeev Khandelwal on picking limited number of projects: If people forget me I'll start from scratch

Rajeev Khandelwal is one of those actors who you wouldn't see much on the screens but once you do, you won't forget his work. From doing films like Aamir, Shaitaan, and others, Rajeev made his mark in the industry a long time back. However, the actor doesn't appear very frequently in films. When asked in an interview with a leading daily reason for picking limited projects, Rajeev said he likes to live his dreams.

"I go by my instinct and I do fewer projects because my life is not just about my work. If you look at my career right from the beginning, you will see long breaks. The reason is: I live my life in intervals, otherwise I’m working. I don’t sleep, eat, drink, work. I sleep, eat, drink my dreams that have nothing to do with my work. There is another life that occupies a bigger chunk in my head than my work. If you tell me that you are not going to be seen for one year, I’m fine with it as I am not insecure and I will probably tell myself that I will start from scratch. I have reached here because of me. If people forget me, I will start from scratch." He went on to explain how he manages his life in a balance giving equal time to his family and work. "I finish a project, I take off for a holiday with my wife. My longest holiday has born of 35 days. We come back and spend some time at home and then I work so that I can spend on my holiday. I have enough money to survive without doing projects on a regular basis."
