Talking to Mumbai Mirror, he shares his perspective on love and marriage. Shiv said, 'I do want to get settled at some point in life. I am a romantic person. I want a partner who will understand the nature of my work and appreciate my accomplishments in life. Someone who is not insecure because, as an actor, we work with many people in the industry and spend time with them, but my partner should have trust in me,' says Shiv.
While he admits that the idea of love makes him apprehensive, he believes he will eventually get past that fear. 'I am scared of love. But I will get over that, I'm sure, and will look forward to finding someone,' he shares. The actor draws inspiration from his parents' beautiful relationship. 'I look at my parents and see how they are still in love with each other. I want someone in life who is here to stay.'
On the work front, Shiv, who is known for reality shows, is now focusing on acting in films and web shows. He says, 'People have only seen my real side through reality shows. I want to show people my acting as well.'

Theatre has to feel personal, or it is just noise to all, says director Abhishek Majumdar
1 2 Abhishek Majumdar, a playwright and director based in Bengaluru, believes theatre 'must reflect life in all its complexities'. With his latest play, Des, he brings together history, human emotions and satire to revisit the night of India's Independence. Excerpts from a chat: 'SATIRE IS JUST ANOTHER WAY OF TELLING A TRAGEDY' Most of the stories about independence focus either on patriotism or trauma, says Abhishek. With his play, the director tells us he was determined to offer a new perspective by bringing in a satirical plotline. 'Satire lets one hold both laughter and loss together alongside bringing the truth to the front. It isn't an imported product of Europe or America; satire is in our roots. The Indian epics are full of characters who speak the truth through humour. If we don't include satire, then we are just writing essays,' he says.

'THEATRE HAS ALWAYS BEEN DEMOCRATIC ACROSS THE WORLD' Abhishek believes that theatre is still one of the most democratic art forms in India. 'In theatre, one cannot escape the other. One has to sit with strangers and face the disagreement without switching between channels. People confront discomfort in real time. Today, theatre survives because of its presence that always tells what our society is thinking, fearing and hoping,' he explains.

Bengaluru is the city of Kambar, Karnad and Ananthamurthy, who have significantly contributed to the theatre scene in the city. From Hindi, English, Kannada to Tamil, Marathi and Bengali, one can observe a rare multilingual diversity in Bengaluru theatres. There is hunger in Bengaluru's audience to listen, to debate, to disagree thoughtfully. That's what makes for real theatre culture in the city,' says Abhishek.
