Earlier, I used to charge territories instead of my fees as an actor, but I realised it was better to keep the two apart. Now, I take my fees in cash, for acting, and keep the distribution thing separate.

I never talk about my personal life. After these rumours, I definitely do not want to comment on anything.

The difference being that in films, unlike in life, good does always win over evil in the end.

In the South, it is different, they have a audience that is literate.

By getting into distribution and production, I am actually widening my base.

In the industry, you do need some ethics - if one film does well, then thousands get work and money comes back to the industry. I guess the bottomline is, if there are two versions, then the better one will click.

Today I divide my day between being actor, producer and distributor, and the monotony is broken.
