Yes, Alok Nath was indeed a ‘wild thing’ in his younger days in Delhi. An alumnus of Hindu College, the actor tells us just why ‘Sanskaari’ is the new cool in his life.

We hear you were actually quite badass back in the days in Delhi. Were you?
What do you mean “was”? I still am. I’m badder ass in Mumbai.

What’s the wildest thing you’ve done?
All wild things are erased permanently, I’m quite docile and tame now.

Five films you weren’t sanskaari in.
Bol Radha Bol (1992), Vinashak (1998). I can only remember two. The other three are under construction at the moment.

One person you’d like to give aashirwad to.
Actually, I’d like to give it to Chuck Norris and our own Rajini Saar.

When was the last time you went to a mandir?
I am giving this interview from the mandir only. The sound you can hear is the ghantis.

Who do you think is the new Alok Nath in the making in Bollywood?
Are you kidding me?

Your favourite item song.
Baby Doll. It is good for our country’s sagging gold reserves.

Best babuji pick-up line.

One dialogue that you’ve repeated most through your babuji roles.
