Rithvik Dhanjani on the pros and cons of dating apps
The actor stated, "They are helping out the youth for sure because nowadays, the culture is different. Earlier, we would be more social and meet people in real and only then we would start talking to them. Try to get their number from friends or go and give them a message that we like them, and wait for a call and see how it goes. The dating apps are helping because your society is in your palm. You can go to a club, you can party, and do all of that right on your phone, which is good and also bad in a way. Good - because now you are clear about what you want, what you like, and what you don't like. You don't really have to wait and explore with the wrong people. You don't have to kiss as many frogs to find your prince. You might have to kiss a few but I feel the charm is missing. I am still an old-school romantic guy. So, I would love the idea of meeting someone in person and doing things for them, like taking them out for dinners and doing those sweet little things because I feel that adds a lot of charm to relationships which is missing nowadays. Everyone needs instant gratification, instant approval, and instant validation. So, that is something I don't like."
Old schools are getting lost in this whole new concept of dating, do you agree?
"Absolutely, because it's very difficult for us to do this. I have never been on a dating app and I don't think I can ever be on a dating app because that's not something who I am. Not that I have anything against it. It's just that I am not comfortable with it, and I don't like the idea of seeing someone and judging them over a picture or a video. I want to meet the person for real, and see it for myself for what they are. Let me be very honest with you, what people are on social media and what they are in real life, are two very different things and we have experienced that 100 times on the show where people say, 'Abe, ye profile vala/vali toh lag hi nahi raha/rahi be. What the hell is this!' It's very different and I still don't believe in social media much," shared Rithvik.
'Coaches never play' but is this coach (Rithvik), playing the dating game in real life?
The actor laughed and said, "This coach is definitely not playing. It's going to be almost three years now. So, no no man, I haven't been on the ground, I have been out of it, I have been out of touch."
