I know I wasn't as handsome as some other guys, but I was OK with that.

I didn't go out looking for negative characters; I went out looking for people who have a struggle and a fight to tackle. That's what interests me.

I love Hindi films.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.
