Sangram has been one of the only few candidates who has come out with such a clean image even from a show like Bigg Boss. Sangram also has no vices and he believes in high moral values and a no supplement fitness regime. He believes that through the power of the mind one can achieve anything. We are in talks with multiple television channels, production houses for roles best suited for him. We also would soon be launching a range of sports apparel and accessories under Sangrams own label and are in talks with prospective partners for the same.”
