Actor Jim Sarbh has been on a high since the February premiere of the documentary Unani Ki Kahaani, in which he was the narrator, on Discovery channel. In a conversation with INDIA TODAY, he shares experiences from the project and talks about his idea of a healthy and holistic life.<\/p>\n
Q. How was the response to Unani Ki Kahaani that aired on February 11?<\/p>\n
A. I don\u2019t know what the response exactly has been, but the documentary was made with real care and love, and we went to some beautiful places to film it. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I hope the reception has been fantastic.<\/p>\n
Q. What made you come on board?<\/p>\n
A. I wanted to learn more about Unani\u2014how it was developed; why Ayurveda has so much grip on Indian and international societies in general and Unani is not heard of in the same way even though it\u2019s quite a similar system and relies on the same principles. I wanted to learn about holistic approach to health and wellness. I liked the idea of preventing problems by being ahead of them and changing my lifestyle to support that. <\/p>\n
Q. How different is a documentary to work in than plays, films or web series? Did you need any preparation?<\/p>\n
A. No, I just had to be curious, which was great. I just had to ask questions and learn about the plants and the system, and I found that to be a lovely experience. <\/p>\n
Q. Any behind-the-scenes experiences that you would like to share?<\/p>\n
A. Oh, we shot in beautiful places. Old Delhi was lovely. We shot in Kashmir, which was fantastic. The Qutub Shahi tombs in Hyderabad were the loveliest location I have ever been to. The more you learn about India, the more you get interested in its history and culture. We have such a wonderful, rich, diverse and interesting history. <\/p>\n
Q. What can you tell about your health routine and diet?<\/p>\n
A. You know what your body needs. Believing in very strict ideas of what a body should look like seems silly. It\u2019s kind of a miserable life being so lean constantly, you know. People should enjoy life, be healthy and happy. Get a little bit of everything, like exercise, movement, flexibility and a clean, balanced diet. And indulge too\u2014eat that odd chocolate, pizza. <\/p>\n
Q. Any message for fans who admired your work? <\/p>\n
A. Thank you so much for following me until now, and I hope you continue to. Look out for Titan; that\u2019s coming in June. I am really excited about this project.<\/p>\n
