“Since initial lockdown restrictions were relaxed I’ve been on four projects back to back in four different parts of the world. London, Berlin, Ooty and I’ve just finished shooting for Blind in Glasgow with Sonam (K Ahuja). It’s been a good year career wise and I can’t wait for people to see the hard work we’ve put in through these exceptionally hard times with productions battling the Covid scenario. Real heroes,” he quips.

The Covid 19 situation certainly has affected personal and professional lives of everyone, and Kohli is no exception. But he confesses that he is a total birthday person, “I am lucky to have lots of lovely people who really love me and on my birthdays they always go the extra mile to make me feel special. So yes I love and I am big on the birthday attention.”

Kohli says the best birthday memory he has is from when he turned 40, and his family was in the kitchen the entire day to surprise him. “I was not feeling well so was in bed all day. My wife and daughter were busy in the living room. And when I came up in the evening it was all decorated beautifully and there was the gooiest chocolate cake ever! I felt better instantly. Also my son was born a month earlier and my mum and sister were visiting so it was just perfect! Of course there was a party too in the following week,” he beams.
