“If you have skills to pull off even a four-hour film, people will go and watch it.”

The more I learn about things, I realise how wrong I was before.

My favourite actor is Daniel Day Lewis. He’s the finest actor in Hollywood. I’ve studied his performances.

If you are seeing something for the first time, one of your first reactions should be fascination.

My exercise regime is a mix of gymming, marital arts, sports, etc.

Cricketers have to perform in front of millions, and there are no retakes. If then you become a hero, you deserve all the accolades coming your way.

I come from a family of doctors and engineers, and everyone expected me to take up a similar career. That was the most natural thing to do!

I was a studious child, heavily into academics. For the longest time, I wouldn’t talk.

I crave for adventure. It makes me feel alive and excited. It’s a constant tussle between what you want to do and other parameters that aren’t in your hands.

To be able to make statements, you need to be confident about what you think. You need to have a sense of right and wrong.

Dibakar and Shekhar have the vision that we would associate with European cinema. They leave their actors on their own to give a personal narration on the screen.

I cannot think that I am a good cricketer and just become one. For this, one needs skill.

My strength would be my honesty and my passion towards my work.

An actor has to remember the primary reason why he chose the profession that he did. If every role that I do doesn’t challenge me, then what is the point of being an actor?

The closest synonym of happiness is excitement, and you can generate it by doing something that you can’t completely comprehend. This understanding makes the process rich and exciting.

I am not a private person; you can ask those who hang out with me.

I was very excited and interested as a background dancer or as a theatre actor or when I was working on TV, or even on the film which didn’t do well, like ‘Byomkesh.’

Every time I go on to the court, people expect me to get a medal. It is tough, and I can’t win always, but I still have to go out there and give my best.

I rely on people who can deliver.

It’s so much easier to know who you are when there aren’t a thousand people telling you who they think you are.

The AAP government has turned Delhi into a city of potholes and has hurt the sentiments of people of the city.

We are happy that we could resonate with so many people.

Your liberals and radicals all want to govern. They want to try it their way- to show that people will be happier if the power is wielded in a different way or for different purposes. But how do they know? Have they ever tried it? No, it’s merely their guess.

It might be the wish of many people that Allahabad can be renamed as Prayagraj. I think that it will give a very good message.

Remember that the happiest people are not those getting more, but those giving more.
