So yes, I would absolutely love to explore more films from the south as and when the opportunities present themselves.

A movie like 'La La Land' would be just great. I just cant get over this musical love story. I loved Emma Stone and wish to do a role like that in future.

I know how it feels to be helpless and it is the biggest fear one can experience.

It's always fun when you pick up a skill for a particular character.

I feel, we actors are out there a lot, and people are hell bent on trying to create perceptions of our lives. We tend to influence people through our lifestyles or mannerisms. It is important that we be honest about our emotions.

I have been a part of four different genres - a political satire, gangster drama, thriller and period drama.

I have shot for a political satire by Anubhav Sinha called 'Abhi Toh Party Shuru Hui Hai.'

A lot of people can relate to the feeling of JOMO - Joy of Missing Out.

People think that I'm not interested in doing Marathi films, but that's not true. Marathi cinema is very close to my heart.

I am extremely fortunate to have such talented people as my parents. I will always turn to them for advice. But I am my own person and have my independent views.

I have always had a performers instinct since I was a child.

I am not very strategic by nature.
