“I can’t stand on the roadside and have Pani Puri like before. But, at the same time, being an actor makes you feel special. People look up to you, want to know more about you, and shower you with so much love without even knowing you personally. It’s overwhelming.”

She felt like Poetry.

I will always choose to work in a movie based on whether I would want to watch it – if I would be willing to spend money in a theatre on it. The script and the people you will work with come after that.

Cause she owned the fire she’d become the storm.

Always keep the child within you alive! It’ll help you in shooting.

And in between a guilty laughter that pretended to move on, her eyes shed tears of reality and broke all her delusions.

I’m not much involved in sports, and I don’t play, either.

I started modelling while still studying. I liked doing television commercials and being in front of the camera. Lots of ad directors told me to try for films.

The title ‘Dohchay’ is very perfect for the film. It is used very well in the title track. If you see the film, you will understand it.

I could not make mistakes while choosing films when I started out.

My mom keeps khabar of everything, so I don’t feel lonely.

When you’re rapping, you do have to perform to a certain degree, but not every rapper is necessarily a gifted actor.

There is no pure success. I am action actor. I have broken almost every piece of my body.

Clark Gable was the only real he-man I’ve ever known, of all the actors I’ve met.

My sexual nature is irrelevant. I’m an actor, I play roles, fragments of myself.

I want to really stress this, I am a director, an actor, producer, action choreographer, and I’m also an investor.
