“Mammootty sir is an idol for me.. His uniqueness in developing characters is quite amazing”

I don’t do films because they tell a particular kind of story, I do films with stories that touch me.

When I was new, I didn’t know where my career will go. Initially, my films were not even successful, but then I learned a lot from my mistakes.

Badminton is like ballet dancing. It requires a lot of control, strength, mind play and measured movement

I am happy that I have entertained people and made them happy.

Indian film awards lack credibility.

Box office figures are not something that can decide the success of a film on its own, but they are one of the many yardsticks that help me measure how well a film has been received.

The journey that I have undertaken, meeting people from all walks of life and learning from them, has been my biggest achievement.

I am raising my voice as a citizen of the country. I don?t want to enter politics.

Losing someone we love, or the fear of losing someone we love one day is a difficult experience and we can all relate to it. None of us are an exception to this reality.

I do what I feel is right. I do not fear to walk on a new path and take risk.

The truth is that no matter how many retakes you do, each will be different and that is the nature of any creative medium. There’s no such thing as perfection.

I would love to work with Salman. We have a great tuning so if we work together, it will be great fun. But till the time we don’t get a good script, a script that excites both of us, we can’t work together.

I enjoy thelove I receive from my fans and my audience. But I think I know what is realfor me and what is not.

I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success.

The rule I have when choosing films is the excitement factor, I need to feel excited about the story and whatever message the film has – only then do I sign on the dotted line.

If there is Katrina Kaif in any film, the movie is a hit

Education has for its object the formation of character.

Temperament is the thermometer of character.

A woman of generous character will sacrifice her life a thousand times over for her lover, but will break with him for ever over a question of pride.

To be honest, I don’t think I’m the best role model in the world. I’m pretty immature sometimes.

I became an actor so I can show you characters and never have to show you me.

Character, my friends, is a byproduct. It is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.

I just don’t care what people have to say. I keep pushing toward what I want. It’s just how I am. I don’t know where I got it from.

About Superman and Batman: the former is how America views itself, the latter, darker character is how the rest of the world views America.
