I am growing with my audience. When I made my debut, I was 24, and they have grown up with me. They are with me with each choice of mine.

When I was growing up, I heard horror stories about producers losing their houses overnight. No matter who the family is, hearing of them getting evicted is very sad.

I realise that women don't want to get treated differently but just equally. I don't know what feminism is all about, but I understand that women should be treated equally, and I endorse that thought.

I wanted to be performer; like, I used to dance at weddings. I felt acting was my calling, and that is something I wanted to do.

My dad has always been vocal about critically appreciating me. If I have done a bad job, he will definitely try to correct me with his inputs.

Filmmaking is a very serious job, and I want to concentrate on that.

I want the films of every person I am compared to and am reportedly in competition with to do better than me.

Anything I do in life, the first person I share it with is my elder brother. He always tells me the way to take it forward.

I think listening to the director is the number one strength an actor should have.

I think it's unfair for people to decide what my strength is after just three films.

I want everyone to go back home feeling happy after watching all my films.

When something is not liked by people, you cannot make it run, however big actor or producer you may be. The audience has to make it a hit. The power is in the hands of the public.
