Early life

Sachdev was born in Mumbai, India and brought up in Vadodara, India.[4] He completed his education in Vadodara. At an early age, he was interested in modelling and filmmaking.

Later, Sachdev developed his filmmaking skills by taking up several projects. Later, he shifted to his birth city where he went on to pursue his career in acting.[4]

Sachdev dated his co-star Rubina Dilaik from Chotti Bahu but broke up after four years in 2013.[6][7] Later, after dating for few years, Sachdev married his co-star of Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon... Ek Baar Phir Shalmalee Desai on 12 June 2015.[8] However, they mutually got divorced in 2017.[9] In early 2019, Sachdev confirmed dating Palak Purswani.[10]
