I don't like to mix my personal and professional life. Both are different, and I don't mix it.

When it comes to scripts, I take a critical look at them and then sound it off with Dad.

Dad has been my guiding force. Whenever I am confused about choosing a script, I discuss it with him. However, I have said 'no' to scripts he agreed to, while he has said 'yes,' too, for scripts I have turned down. We have this mutual understanding that works between us.

I learn everything with my every film. If we stop learning, we would stop growing as an actor.

I am aware of the risk with all the media attention, all the glitz and glamour around football. And that was the only piece of advice my father gave me about my future - to stay myself. I know where I come from.

In football, as in politics, resilience pays off.

I'm surrounding myself with people who want to do what I want to do, which is be a football player.

For me the more important thing is fighting. You know, training, fighting. The sports side. I didn't choose my media life.
