My films are of paramount importance to me, the same as my family. That's not going to change. This is a balance I have to strike throughout my life.

My daughter is not an object to flash around or a prized item to put on display.

Basketball is my favorite sport, and I'm also a very passionate football fan.

A successful film is a good film, and a non-successful film is a bad film. It's as simple as that.

Just because I don't show six-pack abs doesn't mean that I don't have them.

The best gift for an actor is the love of the fans. Many make sweet cards, write letters and even come and meet me wherever I am in India. The love and blessings of your elders is also always cherished, but the extra mile that the fans go to is memorable.

In the Indian film industry, especially those of us who are in mainstream cinema, we invariably play a typical hero's role. More often than not, we cater to the public perception. However, there is a latent desire in most actors to do a role where you can go all out and experiment.
