I enjoy being recognized. I'll be very sad if people stop recognizing me. I'll be very sad if I'm not interviewed, because that's a very amazing process.
I have never judged life. If I had, I would have been a complete mess...
One time I nearly experienced failure was when I was acting in 'Hum Aapke Hain Kaun' in 1994. One day, I woke up and found that part of my face was paralysed.
Being a popular director or actor's son can be frightening in this industry. What if you are not able to make it?
I don't think that I will say that we are less talented in Bollywood, but our functioning is different. We cater to a different kind of audience.
I wrote a book on life coaching, because my life became my own reference point how to live.
I was born in a poor family, a lower middle class family. My father was a clerk in the forest department. I was very bad at studies. I was not very good at sports, also.
I was 28 when I played the role of a 65 year old man in my first film.
