Learning a craft is up to you, whether you are doing theatre or movies.

Acting is no longer a taboo. The stigma has gone because people have realised that it's a perfectly valid career choice.

No actor can give his best performance without the help of the director.

Bombay Boys' is among my favourite movies and my favourite performance of myself.

I mean, I grew up in a very musical family.

Due to my serious kind of roles, people - apart from my close friends and family - did not know the real me.

And I used to assemble the family to hear because I thought that they were so good that even from the point of view of enjoyment people shouldn't miss them, and I got every word of his that I could, and I could see by hard argument there was only the one way for it.

I'm a good son, a good father, a good husband - I've been married to the same woman for 30 years. I'm a good friend. I finished college, I have my education, I donate money anonymously. So when people criticize the kind of characters that I play on screen, I go, 'You know, that's part of history.'
