Actor

Whenever I meet my friends, we talk about our teachers.

Accomplishments are very subjective.

I load on proteins, veggies, fruits and nuts and never took support of supplements.

'Vicky Donor' or 'Madras Caf,' John's films have been path-breaking. I have full faith in the script of my movie, and my director, too, is a debutante. I like the conviction with which they work, and that gives me a lot of confidence.

I always try that my next film is different than my last movie. I would like to surprise my audience; that, I think, is the job of an actor.

The fact that Sanjay Leela Bhansali wanted me to be part of his film was a high point in my life.

I had to go on the strict caveman diet where you eat only vegetables, chicken, and egg whites. This diet in many ways sounds right to me, and it has worked wonderfully.

I strongly believe that when you are cast in a role, there will be similarity in the character and you - why else would you be chosen for the character?

I believe that anyone who chooses a path and keeps walking will find a positive result some day. I didn't want to go with the flow and do any kind of film that came my way and wind up my career swiftly.

I don't deny that fact that I like Gauahar. She is hardworking, self-made and self-respecting. Somewhere, I see my own personality traits in her. But that's about it. We are not in a relationship.

After school, I started living on my own. After my dad passed away, I didn't know where to go and eventually decided to hang on here in Hyderabad.

I've seen the best and worst of times. My parents were divorced when I was a child. I was brought up by my father.

Most youngsters are so well-connected with the rock music circle that they will know instantly if I attempt to imitate any rock star.

I don't deny that fact that I like Gauahar. She is hardworking, self-made and self-respecting. Somewhere, I see my own personality traits in her. But that's about it. We are not in a relationship.

I fled my home town and did odd jobs, including things like re-designing old furniture, before I became an actor. Having said that, I don't think the story of my life is in any way remarkable. What is remarkable is how acting opportunities have come my way.

I love travelling and exploring different places in India and around the world.

I want to constantly do better than my last film.

It's a misconception that all singers need to portray a messed up, dirty look to prove their identity.

I'm not going to have a six-pack abs. I think it's a luxury to have six-pack abs, but I don't think I can afford it yet. It's extremely tough, and I think having it will be an achievement.

When you have friends in the industry, you're always expected to talk about work. Seldom do you talk about stuff outside work with friends in the industry. Therefore, I don't have many actor friends, but I find lot of brotherly warmth from a few.
