Actor-comedian Kiku Sharda, who has been eliminated from "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa", heaves a sight of relief and confess shooting for two daily soaps and two weekend reality shows had begun to take a toll on his health.
Kiku is relieved it's over.
"Dancing on 'Jhalak...' was fun and challenging while it lasted. But it was exhausting. It requires a lot of physical energy and emotional commitment, which I'd have happily given if I didn't have all the other serials to shoot for," said the actor
Apart from "Jhalak..." he's seen as Palak on "Comedy Nights With Kapil" and also features in "Akbar-Birbal" and "FIR".
"I really don't know if I'd have reached the finals if I tried harder. I am not sure I wanted to. 'Jhalak...' took too much of time energy and concentration. There were no half-measures," he said.
"While I danced, I danced with all my heart and soul. It was grueling because doing 'Jhalak...' was like a full-time activity on top of all my other commitments.
