Aditya Roy Kapur

“As actors, when we keep working every day, after a point of time, we just know all our emotional cards and how to play them.”

“By the time I finished my first three films, I realised this is something I want to do for a long time, learn, and grow in.”

“I look back - I think I am an accidental actor.”

“When you work for long, you know things about your craft, but how differently you are going to project it so that it can still look new is what I am constantly trying.”

“It's exciting to work with stars, but there is no reason to be nervous because in the initial stages of my career, I have worked with Akshay Kumar, Aishwarya Rai, Salman Khan... I have worked with these stars, so nervousness has gone out my system after that.”

“Daawat-E-Ishq' did not do as well as we expected, so yes, when a film doesn't do as well as you wanted it to, it hurts, especially after you have put your sweat and blood on it.”

“Music was a part of my life even before acting happened. But I mostly play my guitar only for myself and sometimes when jamming with my friends.”

“I don't think about how much business my films will make.”

“As an actor, technically, when you are off a film, you are out of a job. An actor goes from job to job. By virtue, acting is an unsure profession.”

“I've heard how people are asking each other to 'Netflix and chill,' so I think it's kind of fun. I'd do that!”

“In 'Kalank,' I am playing a character, which is quite strong, quiet a little complex yet interesting, that drew me towards the character when I heard the narration from director Abhishek Varman.”

“One cheat meal is fine, but keep it at one, because if you do another, then it's a slippery slope.”

“Yes, I will probably concentrate on solo roles, but I would not say no to multi-starrers if they come from good directors and with a good script. I would allow myself the freedom to do it.”

“When I was a VJ, people told me I will be an actor. I used to laugh.”

“I don't want to do only one film a year; I want to work more.”

“I didn't like the idea of acting back in school. Both my brothers were into it.”

“The dos are drink lots of water, get enough fibre and carbs as well, as they are important. The don'ts are don't be too extreme with any diet; it can really end up harming your system and immunity.”

“I'm happy in my own world, and I'm also a good boy.”

“I love all kinds of genres. I watch all kinds of movies.”

“I think live-in relationship works for a few people, and it doesn't for others. I have never done it, so I can't speak about the pros and cons. I don't know if that will work for me or not, but I am definitely not close to the idea. For an arrangement like that to succeed, one needs to have the right feeling for the right person.”
