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.
priorities suffering roles
The moment you say, 'I want to do a role,' the story suffers. I don't set priorities in terms of roles or scripts.
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.
thinking missing scared
I get scared when I think I'm going to miss my flight. I get obsessed when I actually miss a flight.
responsibility important roles
I usually go with roles that I find entertaining. But every once in a while, there comes along a film that has an important social message. As actors, we have a certain responsibility toward our audience.
society might firsts
The day we learn to allow an ambulance to pass through in traffic, might be the first step towards being a truly responsible society.
roles stories done
I was overjoyed when I was offered the title role in 'Well Done Abba.' I was ready for the role even before I heard the story because you don't ask questions when it is Shyam Benegal's film. It is the chance of a lifetime.
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.'
roles looks my-family
I just love to work and spend time with my family. And that's the reason I don't look at the length of the role, but what it has to offer me.
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.
