Aparshakti Khurana is one of the most promising actors of Bollywood and he is known for his work in films like 'Dangal', 'Stree' etc... Although his acting stint is going quite well right now, Aparshakti shares that this wasn't the preferred choice of career for him initially. In a recent chat with IANS, the actor shared that he actually wanted to become an army officer and even sat for the UPSC NDA exam during his teenage.

Khurana stated, "I have always looked up to the people in uniform with a lot of respect. They have a certain dignity that the command and the way they conduct themselves is simply exemplary."

Unfortunately, Aparshakti couldn't make it in into the army but he still has immense love and admiration for the forces. He says, "I have always been in awe of that life and it was my dream to join the army. I even sat for the NDA exam too, of course it didn't work out. Even if I couldn't join the army, I still have the same amount of admiration for the life they lead."

On the work front, Aparshakti Khurana will soon be seen playing a terrorist in 'Dhokha - Round D Corner'. Apart from this, he'll also star in espionage thriller 'Berlin'.
