Jinder Mahal insists he's hardly the obnoxious, clamourous person you see on-screen and is actually pretty chill and humble in real life.

Named Yuvraj Singh Dhesi, the Canadian-born Indian first signed with the WWE in 2010 and would start life in the business as the kayfabe brother-in-law of The Great Khali the following year.

Things wouldn't go as well as expected, though, and he was released four years after joining.

Speaking in an interview with Darpan Magazine, the 31-year-old shed a bit of insight on his career and persona.

“My character is more of a loud and angry type," he revealed. "I am actually a very quiet humble person at home."

Since his return in 2016, though, Mahal has fared much better. He's become WWE Champion, having beaten Randy Orton at last year's Backlash to claim the belt and also won the United States Championship at WrestleMania 34 by defeating Rusev, Randy Orton and Bobby Roode in a Fatal 4 Way.

Mahal has since lost both of his titles, yet it's been quite the run for him and there's likely more to come, despite his poor fortune since moving to Monday Night Raw.

“I was brought back to the WWE in 2016 and won this [title] 10 months later. Being the 1st ever champion of Punjabi or South Asian descent is truly an honour,” Mahal remarked. “I still have a lot more to show and the best is yet to come. When it’s all over, I want to be seen as one of the best WWE wrestlers of all time.”

“This was my first WrestleMania moment and I am very happy that I won the title," he said of his debut on the grandest stages of them all. "Now that I have a taste of it, I want to go again and take it to the next level. I am thankful for the opportunity, but I remain hungry for the main event and the chance to win the WWE championship at WrestleMania one day.”

The Modern Day Maharaja would also reflect on getting dropped by the WWE, claiming it was the best thing that has ever happened to him as it left him motivated and even more intent on making it big.

“I look back on it as the best thing that happened to me as it motivated me," he added. "WWE is a highly competitive entertainment business where if you aren’t up to the level they want, there are numerous others waiting to take your spot. You have to give your 100% every day. I had a lot of regrets when I got released, but I committed myself to making it back to the WWE and didn’t take anything for granted.

“It has been a long journey but I feel like it has just begun. I want to have a long career and the sky is the limit.”
