Let’s get to know the likes and dislikes of Basit…
How did you enter into the field of showbiz?
I have been inclined towards acting and modelling since childhood and my passion became stronger when my short videos got noticed and liked by millions of followers.
How picky are you about brands you agree to endorse?
I love to work with brands who are known for their quality and standard.
Where do you draw your inspiration in modelling from?
My mother has been my biggest inspiration.
How do you stand out from the crowd?
I believe your personality is what makes you stand out.
What’s the secret behind your fitness?
A lot of credit goes to just good genes. But apart from that I am an athlete as well, so that added more value to my physical fitness.
What is one thing that not many people know about you?
I am a fitness freak. Gym is my second home.
What is your favourite form of exercise?
Cardio and for that I give running my first preference over treadmill, stair-master, cycling or elliptical.
Are you brand conscious?
I am not brand conscious. I love fashion, as long as it complements my personality. But at the same time I don’t delve in, just for the heck of it.
How comfortable are you doing bold shoots?
I am really comfortable.
One moment that’s really hard for you to erase from your mind?
God gave me a chance once to change my life but I didn’t avail that. I can never get that out of my mind.
Who has been your biggest strength?
My mom.
Is there a shortcut to fame?
Shortcuts only bring you temporary joy and untenable reliefs. If you want to change your life for good, then real success rests in the constant struggle and persistent efforts.
Biggest lesson learnt?
Life is all about choices and chances. So just work hard and wait for that chance, if you get it, make sure to avail it to the fullest.
How do you remain work-focused?
Now, I am used to this life. If I don’t work hard I will get in trouble. Haha!
What is most important for you?
Peace of mind.
Your aims, goals and mission?
First I want to establish my name as a credible actor and then I want to polish my acting skills and eventually one day I want to take an award.
