The very cute boy Shantanu Maheshwari who was the runner-up of dancing reality show Jhalak Dikhlaa Jaa is currently working on overcoming his water phobia.

Shantanu in an interview said, "Yes I am at the moment taking swimming, as a challenge. I have always wanted to learn it, but never really took it up as there was a slight fear in me. But now I have decided that it is high time I overcome this fear! It is also helping build up my stamina which in turn is getting out the best of me at my dance rehearsals, and honestly, I am now starting to enjoy it as it is a great way of working out."

Shantanu on pranking during his first show D3 said, "So when shooting for an outdoor shoot one year during D3, our entire team decided to prank one of our co-stars and crew members, about paranormal activity in the hotel! We all actually started making sounds, and faces which freaked them out so much that she was nearly on her way back home and started crying complaining to the production people! She got so freaked out that we had no option but to tell her that it was just a prank!! She was so angry with all of us, but we did have the time of our life, it was an awesome shoot too, and something we will never forget! And one of the best pranks I ever got to play on my costar."
