“I would be stupid to say no to Bollywood. It is the biggest film industry in our country.”

“A character like Baahubali required a preparation that I had to undergo mentally and physically - from undertaking a strict routine and a lifestyle, which helped me become the character physically, to knowing the character's depth and a lot more.”

“I consider Rajamouli my guru. He is a friend with whom I can discuss all my professional and personal matters.”

“We made 'Baahubali' with pure intentions. It taught us that we might be remembered for the rest of our lives if we do something with good intentions in our hearts.”

“I want my films to be entertaining: not comedy, but something which is gripping.”

“'Baahubali' gave me something that's really huge.”

“I feel dull when I am unable to see my mother for long. So, when I am in Hyderabad, I spend time with her.”

“Everything else is irrelevant after the bliss of giving a perfect shot.”

“The way 'Baahubali' has connected with people all over India... it has given us recognition all over the country. It's a humbling experience. I'm thankful to the entire team.”

“I love Rajkumar Hirani's films. I saw 'PK,' and I didn't like it much... But I loved his previous three films.”

“The action scenes you'll see in 'Saaho' are all real - it's going to look fantastic.”

“When we started work on 'Baahubali,' my sheer aim was to be able to live up to the imagination that Rajamouli sir had in mind. As an actor, my intention was to bring up 'Baahubali' live on screen for the audiences. I never even expected in my wildest of dreams that the film would grow on to become a phenomenon of sorts.”

“Most of the times, I am on a strict diet for my characters, but once in a while, I love indulging in a bucket full of ice cream.”

“Friendship is a personal issue, and it should remain that way.”

“I knew that when the trailer of 'Bahubali' released, it would have a great impact, and it did.”

“Karan Johar is a great person.”

“I still have that South Indian accent. But I am working on it. Hindi audiences should feel that I am speaking like them and should relate to me.”

“I may act in many more films in the future, but 'Baahubali' will be the best in my career.”

“I watch a lot of Hindi films. I live in Hyderabad, where 60 per cent of the people speak Hindi.”

“I truly believe Abu Dhabi is one of the world's best film locations, and I can't wait to come back.”
