I never go by past accolades or failures.
I am playing Elvis Presley in 'Hello Darling.' The project is really exciting for me because I get to play my idol.
I have made mistakes in my career by associating with films which were mediocre because I needed money at that time.
I have realized that there is no point doing a small film.
What I want to do now is to play a dark character. I want a role that taps into my dark side and it will be a refreshing change for me after all the comic roles.
In 1993 after giving a blockbuster 'Aankhen,' I had no work. I was sitting at home for a year.
I find doing emotional scenes very tough, it is very challenging for me.
I think comedy is very easy. Its all in the writing. If the writing is good and you have good director it is good.
It is the third edition of 'Housefull,' I was there in the first and second, thank god, I'm in the third part.
I was born on Dev Anand's birthday so I believe... the older I get, the better I become.
My face looks tanned and taut because I have been swimming under the sun at Otters Club every day. I have also lost a lot of weight. But I want to do plastic surgery.
Ananya is a very happy soul, who won't get bogged down by insecurities. I have told her to not imitate anyone.
Everything goes away except your family.
I realized that in every movie, there are a handful of scenes that stand out. So, if you get two of those four-five scenes, then you're set.
Today you see so many lady-boys in Bangkok roaming the streets where they have even removed their Adam's apple through surgery to look like girls. That's tampering with nature, but I feel if one needs to do little things to look good as we are in the looks business, then one shouldn't hesitate to do plastic surgery.
I've gone after stuff that is short and highly appealing.
Even if I do one or two films a year, what is important is whether I'm getting to do the kind of work that I'm interested in.
You have to make your own story, and I would love to be known as Ananya Pandey's father.
Nowadays, you cannot tell your kids what to do. In fact, you have to listen to them. As a parent, give them great education and values and they will decide what to do in life.
We have this impression of Africa being a large mass of homogenous land but Africa is actually very diverse. I had shot for 'Vishwatma' there ages ago and then visited again for my honeymoon.
