I want to do films that will make an impact and project me in a different way.
I would like to get a wider audience. With 'Tiger Zinda Hai' I reached out to Salman Khan's market, through 'Soorma' I can reach out to Diljit's fans. As an actor I want to have my own market too.
I had to unlearn cricket to learn hockey. It is easier for someone who is not a sportsperson to pick up hockey. They just have to learn it.
'Pink,' which is set in Delhi, is not women-centric but a youth film.
I am thankful for having got the opportunity to work in a film such as 'Pink' so early in my career.
I watched a lot of Jean-Claude Van Damme films and loved his film 'Bloodsport.'
I have studied and graduated out of Delhi. I moved to Mumbai after graduation.
My childhood was all about discipline, hard work and training.
I train like an athlete. I am very competitive. I like to fight. I like to prove my performance.
Though I was born in a cricketing family and played Under 16 and Under 19 cricket for Delhi, my heart was always in cinema. Even while I was playing cricket, I was day dreaming about how it would be to stand on a film set saying lines.
Besides working out for nearly six hours a day, I am also learning different forms of martial arts.
I trained in kick-boxing and Muay Thai.
The main challenge is food. I need to zip my mouth and not give in to cravings.
My message for young parents is that although it is very natural to worry, it doesn't lead to anything. Try to live positively because your attitude is going to rub off on your children.
We should all realize where we have come from our learnings and teachings and set examples for future generations.
My childhood dream was to work with Mr Bachchan and 'Pink' fulfilled that.
I would love to follow a career graph like Akshay Kumar's.
I'm really looking forward to Rohit Sir's film 'Sooryavanshi.' I'm a big Rohit Shetty fan and also Akshay Sir is in it.
I've picked up a lot of muscle weight. I have to be a physically strong guy.
I hope 'Tiger 3' gets made because it's a great franchise to be a part of. I hope I get repeated in 'Tiger 3' also because I feel that to work with Salman Khan Sir is the biggest thing ever.
