I don't think there is any set formula to have a good relationship.
Bollywood has not utilised my potential! But unfortunately, we can't plan and have things our way.
I used to once believe that the script is the most important thing, but now I also believe that the kind of people you are working with also matters a lot, and moreso, to see how the film will be promoted.
I have been a funny kid growing up but every one thought I was a serious person. I think it has to do with the choice of my films such as 'Zakhm,' 'Kalyug' and 'Traffic Signal.'
It's annoying to sit at home and not go to work. But I feel it's better to wait and do something that will be seen and appreciated.
I keep feeling I constantly debut every two years.
It's a huge learning that things aren't always in your control. You can only be responsible for what you're doing.
It has been a journey of ups and downs. There have been moments of immense joy and heartbreaks. Everything I have gone through has made me better.
I have generally never committed to things in my life but I am very committed to this relationship. Soha is one of my best friends and sometimes I treat her like a friend more than a girlfriend.
I do know there is a lot of pain sometimes but you need to deal with it and communicate what you're feeling.
Sometimes even if a common friend holds Soha's hand, I get jealous. But other days, she can go out for dinner and dancing with someone and I wouldn't think much about it.
I enjoyed watching 'Mirzapur,' 'Sacred Games.' There are interesting shows.
I am a fan of crime investigative series.
I am an ardent watcher of lot of series on the web platform.
I love action films because I have grown up seeing some of the brilliant movies of the genre like 'Ghatak,' 'Ghayal,' 'Shiva.' Watching people doing such stunts had always mesmerised me and fascinated me to think that I should also do such things if I become a hero.
I started as a nobody in this industry and today I can say that I have made some sort of a name for myself.
With some many talented people around, it is difficult to cut through competition and stand out.
I was born there and I moved away in 1990 when I was seven years old. After that my family moved away from there to Delhi and Mumbai. Now, only a handful of relatives live in Kashmir and we are constantly worried about them. It pains me to see that my birth-place is not a safe place to be in anymore.
I started off with films similar to 'Blood Money' - intense, emotional dramas. But as is often the case, the industry and audience typecast me and I decided to break away. Hence, followed a spate of comedies.
I learnt a lot as a child actor. Since I had been before the camera, I knew how it would be to be on a set or on a shoot. That way it was easy for me when I re-entered the industry as the main lead.
