If it's a 50-seat theater, I am neurotic about whether I'm doing an honest performance. Sometimes I walk away happy enough with it. You know, it can always be better, but sometimes I'll walk away distraught, feeling like I missed the pulse of the character that evening.

If you go back to Season 1 of 'The Office,' Steve Carell's character is a lot different.

There's some projects you're - where you're worrying that the continuity isn't right because people aren't watching after your hair or wardrobe or props, or you're not sure you're getting shot at the right angle.

In a way, I felt like I arrived before I was making money at it, because I'd established that I just wanted to act.

I used to think I was a big star. And I used to think that the TV industry, Balaji, and my show will not survive without me. But then I realised that you cannot be bigger than your work.

I think that one of the strangest things about being an actor is, it's almost freelance work.

You can't model for the rest of your life, so it is important to diversify your career.

Sometimes you work with people, and you just don't want to even be in their space, but you do it because it's your job, you know.
