“I think good friends are a gift from God. It does not matter whether you meet your true friend in school, at work, in your locality, or on a journey, wherever you find them never let them go. Such bonds need to be cherished,” he says.

Any place in this world is enjoyable if your close friends are with you. “A simple neighborhood can turn your best holiday destination if you have your friends by your side. I completely enjoy going out and travelling with my pals,” shares the actor.

Bajaj is a close friend with his namesake, popular TV actor, and director Prashant Bhatt. They have known each other for five years.

“He is someone who has always guided me on how to work hard and stay focussed. He is the one person who kept in touch even during the DIFFICULT lockdown situation last year and extended his support.

He said that he is there whenever I need him and I knew he meant it. He is a man of ethics and always stands by his dear ones and also those who are in need,” he adds.

The actor also praises Bhatt’s knowledge and dedication towards his work. So other than sharing the name and friendship, is there a common interest between them?

“There are in fact quite a few but the one I could remember right now is that w we both like mango ice cream,” shares the Ayushman Bhava actor.
