I am an eco-friendly person and a vegetarian.
I do have carbon footprints because of travel, but apart from that, I am simple guy.
I am quite an animal and nature lover.
You have to do all kinds of things like voice-overs, corporate gigs, and edit videos to support yourself.
I just do what I get cast in.
Ranveer is a great co-actor. He is extremely reactive and extremely responsive. He is a pleasure to work with.
Sometimes, even when you aren't shooting, 25 percent of your brain is still with your character.
It's nice to get compliments from both girls and guys.
I acted all through school and college.
When you are not successful, nobody listens to you.
'Neerja' is such a solid film. Everything about the film has substance, be it sound, writing, story, background scores, or direction.
It occurred to me that actors are selfish, and they think that the world revolves around them. For one year, I quit, and I went to an ashram in Bihar and went to Himalayas backpacking.
In theatre, I get comedy or nice lead roles. I don't understand a grey or negative role.
Be it films or shows or plays, it's the content that matters the most.
It is important for an actor to play different roles.
In 'Padmaavat,' you are pushed to be as good as the frame, to have a presence that lives up to the grand, operatic, intricate, beautiful frame that you inhabit. I love trying to rise to that.
I heard that Sanjay Leela Bhansali has an eye for detail, and it shows in his work, but seeing it firsthand is a powerful experience.
If I see that everything the director does is motivated by trying to achieve the best, I can accept anything.
In 'Jonaki,' it isn't about the individual actor. The actor is as important as the wall, or the water flowing down the wall, or a shadow. That kind of acting is also fascinating to me, not to be invisible necessarily, but to be in perfect synchronicity with the environment.
I try to conserve water and avoid plastic as much as I can.
