It's about time we move away from Bollywood a bit and look up to our actors on the small screen as well. No, we are not asking you to start watching saas-bahu serials, instead, get acquainted with the actors from the small screen. They may be playing a goodie damaad or a cunning villain on our screens, but IRL they are our style guides to follow. 

From easy day-looks to designer shoots, we bring you 7 Indian TV stars whom you need to follow to get your daily dose of style inspo!

1. Namik Paul

Photographs are strange things. What you see is very rarely what you get. Someone who looks profoundly ponderous might just be desperately hoping that his hair (ahem) looks alright. A picture might be worth a 1000 words, but when we choose the picture, we get to choose the words as well. It's easy to look at the happy pictures and sunny captions on here and wonder if our invites got lost in the mail. To think that you MUST be missing a trick to not be so god darned happy all the time. I'm not giving out any trade secrets when I assure you that you're not. It's a sorry fact that disappointments and doubts don't photograph well. The struggle is only pleasant to look at once you've overcome it. So we choose the pretty words and use them to spell the stories we want. But it's all there. Not just the dramatic but the mundane letdowns of every day life. And of course I'd love to do away with the bumps, but I know I'd be lost without them. Just to be clear, I'm not advocating pessimism or bitterness. I know the gloom and doom is what makes these moments worth celebrating. Just don't compare your reality to someone else's story. Because you'll lose that battle every time. And on that suitably dramatic note, I hope you guys have a great weekend â¤ï¸ And a big thank you to @yashasvisharma as always for the photos.

You may have seen Namik in 'Ek Tha Deewana' on the small screen (no, we aren't judging you). His Instagram is full of style inspiration. Filled with professional photoshoots and selfies, Namik gives a style guide on how to rock different types of shirts. From printed, white to denim; Namik's Instagram is a treasure for those who love to wear shirts at all occasions.

2. Nakuul Mehta

A rather recognizable face from the small screen, Nakuul's Insta feed is worth a look. He doesn't just give you a guide on how to ace casual clothing but also on how to nail those blogger-style street photos. 

3. Parth Samthaan

Just finished painting this wall ð‍âï¸ phew Not a bad job at all ðºð¼ð¤ #PuneDiaries #highspirits #friends #fun @rohitgujarrg

A TV Actor who loves to travel, what more could you ask for! Parth's social media is basically not just a guide on what to pack for your next holiday, but also how to take A1 travel photos.

4. Ravi Dubey

i have a shield around me that takes care of any negativity entering my aura.. if you think you can affect me, you just overestimated your power. #streetmeditation #badposer #power #innerme #myauraismyshield #meditation #ootd #nonegativity #positivevibes #mondayisback #letskicksomeass #FULLPOWER

Ravi Dubey is probably the most popular name on the list. Ravi's Instagram is what a celebrity's social media feed is made of - group selfies, fancy holidays and casual weekend posts with the wife. If you want to follow somebody famous but who isn't from Bollywood, Ravi Dubey is your answer.

5. Shaheer Sheikh

I was born sick, but I love it #goodmorning #earlybird #madMe #shaheersheikh

A post shared by Shaheer Sheikh (@shaheernsheikh) on Apr 6, 2018 at 5:37pm PDT

Another TV actor who shifted professions, Shaheer was a lawyer before he hit the small screen. His social media is simple, easy and full of family photos. If you are looking for a celebrity account that doesn't belong to an all-out celeb, then Shaheer is your guy.

6. Karan Tacker

In yo face Monday...!𥠗——— #monday #motivation #mondaymotivation #fitspo #fitness #instafitness #fit

Actor, model and dancer, Karan Tacker also happens to be a gym freak. With regular #mondaymotivation posts and post workout selfies, Karan's social media gives you tips on how to flaunt your body in style.

7. Ruslaan Mumtaz
