I am a Mumbaichi mulgi.
I think that people should really understand what it takes to make a film.
I have shot four films for sure. On most days, I wish that there were 48 hours in a day. When a movie is coming to an end and another is going to start, I've felt that I don't want to let go of this one just yet and say goodbye to the character nicely.
I'm never happy with the work I put in. No. I need to be told by my director and people around me that it is fine. Otherwise, I'll even go, like, 'One more take.'
I want to keep bettering myself as an actor and singer.
It is amazing to sing in front of a live audience. It is incredible. The energy is awesome.
After the success of 'Aashiqui 2', I feel I need to conquer a lot more. I am constantly working towards it, and I will work harder.
I know competition is there, and it can come my way by new, fresh faces that are around or are coming up. It pushes me to work hard. I know if I don't work hard, I will be left behind. So, I continue to work hard.
After 'Aashiqui 2,' I have been receiving congratulatory calls and messages from people, and they are showering me with praises. I am happy that the film connected with the hearts of the masses.
Acting is something I've always loved and enjoyed.
I went through a brief phase when I thought of other career options: being an air hostess and even a psychologist. But eventually, my destiny led me to acting. Moreover, my dad being an actor, I have grown up in a very filmi environment. I was encouraged to watch films since I was a child.
Aditya Chopra is my mentor and one of my favorite directors.
