He’s excited, sad, philosophical and karmic. 26-year-old actor Upen Patel is a mixed bag of emotions nowadays.

Currently working with Govinda, Manoj Bajpai, and Celina Jaitley in Ganesh Acharya’s Money Hai Toh Honey Hai , Upen has had a hectic schedule of over 12 -16 hours each day. He says, “I’ve been loved so much by my fans and big directors want to cast me. I am lucky.” But his love life has been a rocky affair. “I am an emotional man. I think with my heart. When I love, I give myself completely.

And anytime a person breaks away from me, she takes a piece of me with her. My woman knows that I will always love her, for love is too lasting an emotion.” Is it model Shamita Singha he is talking about? “Well, about her I wouldn’t want to comment anything. But I must affirm that I’ve been single for over six months now.” And what about lovely co-star Tanishaa? “She’s a beautiful person and I am fond of her as a co-star. We are both young and friendly, so we vibe well. Isn’t that normal?”
