collect horses love polo start time trying
I'm going to start a polo team with my friend, and we're trying to collect as many horses as we can. You have to find time for things you love.
horse mind sitting
I wouldn't mind doing a film revolving around horses, but I wouldn't dilute my equity just sitting on one.
horse car half
In 2010, I sold my car, a Toyota Majester, for just a lakh-and-a-half to be able to feed my horses. It continues to be like a hole, where I put all my money.
horse jobs believe
A few years ago, when I had no work and started believing that films weren't a viable career, I thought of finding another job. I started training and riding horses and got consumed by that. It was a boon in disguise.
horse dna car
Horses are in our DNA. We used them way before cars for commuting.
horse angry
You can't get angry with a horse. They will get angry and frisky with you.
basics front good help invariably learnt realising
Having learnt my basics in theatre, I always feel film is a collaborative effort. If you do your part well and help the person in front of you in realising his or her potential, the film invariably comes out good.
flop happening whether
I feel very meditative when I ride. A horse does not know whether my movie is a hit or a flop or what is happening in my relationship.
half mind
I wouldn't mind going half naked on stage, if that is what my role demands.
basis cast essential filmmakers films given offer work
It is important to keep the filmmakers interested in you so they can offer you everything and anything. We actors are not given work on the basis of audience poll; the filmmaker will cast you after they see and like your work. It is essential to do different kind of films and not get typecast.
widely
I think 'method acting' is a widely abused term.
movies success
For very long, I wasn't able to find a place for myself in movies. After my initial success, I didn't know how to capitalise on it.
two hands giving
I give two hoots about being typecast. It's not in my hands.
arms bare boy difficult easy fire gun guy innocence tears tough vulnerable works
It is easy to bare your body, but it is difficult to bare your soul. What works for me is that I am not a city-raised boy with city-raised sensibilities. I can play the vulnerable tough man, the guy with a gun in his hand, tears in his eyes, fire in his heart, innocence in him, and in his arms a woman he loves.
