Bollywood actor Jay, who was last seen in Desi Kattey (2014), feels playing the instrument helps him stay calm. Interestingly, the actor reveals that he has wanted to learn how to play the guitar ever since he was in school as he thought it looked “cool”.
“Hence, post shooting the film, I decided to continue taking guitar lessons regularly. I believe in picking up new skills and learning to play the guitar is like exposing myself to another medium of art to entertain
