One scene is enough for a good actor to leave his mark in any film.
I have been nominated five times for the Filmfare Award but for some unknown reasons I failed to win the award even once.
Stars can never replace strong character actors in roles that demand histrionics.
I enjoy working with Prakash Jha. An actor prospers if he or she gets a chance to work with him.
Post-'Gangaajal,' I changed my way of functioning, choosing my roles carefully and mixing them up.
It hardly matters for me whether the role is comic or a serious one.
For me, what is more important is the challenge the character poses for me as an actor.
I am not a comedian.
Perception towards Indian television has changed in past few years. It is no more such a small screen, in fact it has wider audience and we should admire it.
I've always played negative roles because I think I'm better suited for them.
I don't know about anyone else, but I got really scared looking at myself in the mirror when I got my hair cut for a role.
I usually get a lot of compliments from people as they can't believe I'm the same person when they meet me.
The children in my building don't know my real name! They are so fascinated with my 'Wasooli' look that they call me Wasooli Uncle.
I learnt a thing or two about acting from theatre actor Robin Das who is from Odisha.
I have done regional films before. They have a different flavour and promising future.
I am not after any award. Love and affection of the audience is the biggest award for me.
To me, big roles are not required to showcase talent.
Regional films have a great impact on the audience, especially because of the proximity of the language with the people.
The story of 'Lalpan Bibi' impressed me and my character also. It has all the ingredients of a great commercial masala movie.
I jumped from a height of 45 feet and though I landed on the boxes. I broke my leg.
