“If you spend time with your loved ones, you get the energy to do your job better.”

I despise women wearing too much makeup. It hides their actual beauty.

Bringing out your vulnerable side and shedding your privacy in front of complete strangers is so very difficult, but when you are into the performance, the relief and release is so extraordinary that you get addicted.

For me, the opposite of happiness isn’t sadness but boredom.

I’ve been a fan of Dhoni for years. I’ve seen him play for India for over 10 years.

I’m a trained engineer, so I’m conditioned to come up with a right answer to a difficult question, but when it comes to art, there is no definite answer because it’s so subjective.

I wanted to be a cricketer. But I was not skilled enough to be a national-level cricketer.

I will continue doing things irrespective of the medium as long as I’m excited about it.

Everything happening around me is very random. I am enjoying the phase, as the journey is far more enjoyable than the destination.

I take time to open up with people. But once I know you, I’m fine. I’m a shy person.

I’ve stopped taking myself seriously because now I understand how fickle my thoughts are.

I think, for every actor, the most challenging part of playing a character, specially a real-life character, is to convince yourself that you are the character.

My dad told me when I was very young, that I should not get married before 30. His only advice to me was to live my life.

When I am not acting or performing, I want to keep quiet and not to have a conversation.

My morning starts with some form of exercise, and I give two hours – from 5:30 to 7:30 A.M. – to my personal fitness.

I can also romance a guy if I like the character and the script. Obviously, only in the film!

There is a very thin line dividing characterisation from impersonation. I’ve to make sure I don’t cross over into mimicry.

Life is so much better when you mind your own business.

Be the reason someones today is better than yesterday.

It’s better to get out before you reach the sell-by date.

I feel like I try to keep learning every time I step off a runway, I try to get better with each one.

It’s much better to go when you are still capable than wait until people say you’re so doddery it’s time you went.

I’m actually listening and being obedient, life is so much better.

The better you become the better you achieve. 

Nothing is forever but time makes things better.
