According to Sharad Kelkar, he used to have severe rage problems more than ten years ago. He added that his wife Keerti once saw him smash glass in a fit of rage and feared for her own safety.
Sharad is wed to the actress Keerti Gaekwad, with whom he co-starred in the television programs Sinndoor Tere Naam Ka and Saat Phere: Saloni Ka Safar. She further had appearances in the well-known Hindi TV series Sasural Simar Ka and Shakti - Astitva Ke Ehsas Ki. She took part in the 2019 season of the food competition series Kitchen Champion.
In an interview, Sharad said that while his rage did not impair his career, it did have an impact on his personal life. He said, "The biggest example is the 150 stitches in my hand and I had to undergo surgery. This was one major incident, I banged the glass and it broke completely on my hand. Keerti witnessed this, she was extremely scared. I was in the hospital and I saw how she was crying outside. It made a huge impact on my life and I decided to turn calm. She did have fear, but I also saw that hope in her eyes. She did tell me that she was scared for herself too witnessing my reaction. Post that life turned completely calm."
He said that he did not strike anyone with his fists but had "very strong perspectives towards life" and has become much calmer and more respectful now. He also said that used to stammer when he came to Mumbai. "I didn't know how to act and didn't have money or a home. That time taught me that I will have to work hard and keep hustling till I get work. That was the 2003-04 phase. After that, when I did my first TV show, Sindoor Tere Naam Ka. I had the stammering issue and I was not sure how I would overcome it."
Sharad is renowned for his affecting performances in Om Raut's Tanhaji, Ashutosh Gowariker's Mohenjo Daro, and Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela. He has also appeared in movies like Operation Romeo, Housefull 4, and Bhuj: The Pride of India.
