the-end-of-the-day directors film
For me, a director is a director immaterial of the gender. At the end of the day, the audience is only interested in watching a good film.
fun home legs
No affairs for me. It is so wonderful to have a family to come home to, to sit with them, pull each other's legs... To lose all of that for what? Who's got the time? I'm having great fun working.
children hero kids
I'm not a hero or a superstar. I'm an everyday guy. I feel happy when children approach me. I feel that something good is happening in life when little kids recognise me.
dark relief roles
I'm an actor, and I don't look at myself as providing comic relief. I have done diverse and dark roles such as a psycho, murderer, and others in films such as 'Don', 'Eklavya' and '3 Idiots.'
mom teacher children
When I was child, I never spoke. Teacher used to write remarks on my note book. My mom sent me to a trainer. I started talking, and it gave me confidence.
jobs character editors
I don't mind being identified as any character as long as I'm doing a good job as an actor. I have done all kinds of roles - from an editor, judge, police officer, murderer to a corrupt businessman.
character proud way
I am very proud to be a part of '3 Idiots,' and happy that the character has worked in a big way.
years play theatre
There's a great charm in theatre; I enjoyed doing it for twelve years and did lots of plays. At this chapter of my life, I am a cinema actor, and I would like to continue to be so, and at some point I would return to the theatre.
ice-cream ice taste
Chilli ice cream doesn't taste bad. But I wouldn't eat it again.
challenges roles enough
I still reject lead roles, as I don't accept any role if I don't find it challenging enough. I am very careful while making selections.
people joy kitchen
I bask in the affection I get on the streets. I recently went into the kitchen of a restaurant to meet the cooks. They were people I didn't know, but what a joy it was meet them! Such experiences wouldn't happen if I were doing only one kind of cinema.
journey unconventional film
Our film industry as well as the audiences are now open to unconventional pairings and subjects, which has aided my journey greatly.
father kids mood
I don't have a father, but my kids tell me every day that they love me... even when I am not in my best mood.
hands way wallets
One can understand a person by the way he removes his wallet and puts his hand to take out money.
