Model and actor Upen Patel has a surprise for his fans. He has shot for an item number for a TV show recently.

Speaking about his experience he said, "This was my first item number for TV, and it was great fun; I did those typical Bollywood dance steps. I play myself on the show. Dance numbers add drama to a story, and they’re great entertainment."

He tweeted,"Don't miss my performance on @ZeeTV"

Besides this, he has wrapped up shooting for a Telugu film and his other 2 projects are in pipeline.

Reality show 'Big Boss' gave his fame and got him noticed on TV platform. However, he doesn't seem to be planning to entertain the small screen audience.

He said, "No. I have just finished shooting for a Telugu film, and I have two other movies on the floors. Film actors are very lucky, as performing for TV is tough. Television actors shoot for 17 hours a day, seven days a week. I am very busy with my films. It's impossible to give time to TV, except for reality TV shows, which don't demand long hours."
