"My mom would always ask me when will you work in 'Yeh Rishta...' and I would reply, 'Ma, there has to be a nice opportunity.' And this was the right opportunity. I had a meeting with the producer and I said, 'Okay sir, I'm doing the show'. I really respect him as a maker. He is brilliant and his vision is superb."

"Moreover, the show is soon going to complete 15 years, it's obviously one of the biggest hits on TV and it continues to entertain the audience," he said.

Jay has been a part of the industry for a long time and worked in shows like 'Dharti Ka Veer Yodha Prithviraj Chauhan', 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 5', 'Nach Baliye 7', and also Vikram Bhatt's web series 'Twisted 3'. After doing numerous TV shows, web series, and films, still he feels a lot is there for him as an actor to learn and the process is never-ending.

"I'm still learning, and I know there is competition but I take it in a very healthy way because I want to improve myself. If I see someone really good, it really motivates me," he concluded.
