hard overrated people pompous underrated
I think it would be pompous to say I am an underrated actor. I don't think it is for me to think and decide; it is for people to decide. But I am glad I am underrated than being overrated - that is something I would find hard to digest.
appeal commercial consider good home known people sex sit though
Sex appeal is a good thing for commercial cinema. Though I can't sit at home and consider myself a sex symbol, it is for people to do so. I want to be known as an interesting actor.
case people prefer repetition though
People prefer doing films. That is not the case with me. I don't do theatre because I have to but because it makes me feel alive. I enjoy the whole process of rehearsing, though repetition can make it tedious.
people work
Approaching people for work has not worked for me. People who came to me with work has worked.
good palpable people struggle
In all of us, there is a struggle between the good and the bad. It makes it more palpable and real to play such people as an actor.
men people materials
I'm just happy that people have recognised me as leading man material.
sports names people
Contrary to the royal and uptight image of polo, I want to bring it to a younger generation. This is a great sport that can have a larger audience and appeal to more people. Sportsmanship is lacking in many other sports that I don't want to name.
people trying normal
I try to keep myself as normal as possible. Stardom is transient. People forget you after a while.
people waiting unnecessary
I don't like people waiting on me. I feel it is an unnecessary expense.
love-is two people
Love is a strange emotion. It is ever evolving. Lust is transient. With time, one realizes that love and togetherness are two different things. Very few people are lucky enough to experience the two emotions simultaneously.
acting good needs package realized sells solid
Over the years, I have realized that there's more to a film's fate than just good acting and a solid script. It needs to be marketed well. It's the package that sells - the songs, action, actors, etc.
industry ladies men race rider seen superior though women
I think I'm the only professional horse rider from the movie industry. Strangely, I've seen no men from the industry at equestrian events. Though I've seen some ladies like Diya Mirza and Lara Dutta at the race course. Women, by the way, make superior horse riders.
widely
I think 'method acting' is a widely abused term.
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.
