These are just different wonderful mediums because they offer me a wide variety of exploring my personality trait. Like, when I'm hosting a show, I'm a different person, and I'm going to be different on 'Khatron Ke Khiladi'. I'll be different when I'm acting on a project. I don't think they collide," the actor told PTI in an interview."I know what I bring to the table when I'm acting, playing a character, when I'm being directed, and I'm so proud of that skill that I've. And that skill cannot be overshadowed, it's personal, it's me. I'm unique in my own way and in no way can somebody else be me, nor can I be somebody else," he added.Having acted across television, reality shows and OTT platforms, Dhanjani said he does not subscribe to the notion of being boxed into a particular medium.He said actors getting "stereotyped" is a much larger conversation of "perspective"."These are moulds that we've created, and in reality, we think they exist, but do they? They don't. When I walked onto the first set of my life, I truly loved the feeling I had on the set and that's the feeling I want to live for the rest of my life," said Dhanjani.The 37-year-old, who has acted in a film, titled "Jo Hum Chahein", and OTT series like "Cartel" and "Half Love Half Arranged", said his approach to work is guided more by instinct and passion than by calculated career moves."If there's any project, it could be any medium, and it sparks something inside of me, I'll do it. I'm here to entertain the world while keeping my heart chirpy, the child in me alive and happy..."Everybody has a different path and a different way of approaching where they want to be. I'm walking my own path, let's see where it takes me."The upcoming season of the stunt-based reality show "Khatron Ke Khiladi", which is hosted by filmmaker Rohit Shetty.Dhanjani, who has in the past appeared as a contestant on "Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 6" and "Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 10", said he is both nervous and excited about the new season of the hit reality series."There are nervous energies even though you do something new, or even though you've done it before.
