“There was a lot of struggle. People have different perceptions about you and sometimes looks also can limit you as an actor.”
“I didn't want to be a hero and get into the mould but the film industry doesn't work like that. It has a habit of branding you in a specific image to market you easily.”
“I love the whole Punjabi culture as I have seen it very closely in Delhi in my growing up years.”
“I always knew I wanted to go into acting. So I dropped out of the modelling circuit and started taking acting and dance lessons.”
“There were offers to do 'Tum Bin 2' and 'Tum Bin 3' but then it would have been the same kind of franchise films which I think limit an actor.”
“Though I hunt for anything that is different, I am looking forward to play some historical characters and the role of Gladiator.”
“There is no Plan B. I love to act and I enjoy what I do.”
“There are lots of variables that come into play in the industry, like attending parties and dating actors. When you don't indulge in all this, you tend to get affected in some way.”
“Bengali movies are a great form of cinema too. Interestingly, they work with lower budgets.”
“There is certainly an economic disparity between Bollywood and the regional film industry.”
“It took me a while to figure out what kind of work I needed to do. I worked with directors like Aparna Sen and Rituparno Ghosh. I wanted to do interesting roles.”
“I smoke, I want to get rid of the habit.”
“Today, presence on social media has become a yardstick to be cast - the parameter to get a job.”
“Everybody is so right when they keep raving about their work experiences with Mr. Bachchan. It was a treat really. He has honed his craft to another level altogether.”
“Today's generation has tremendous pressure to perform well at work. And if one can't match up to expectations then it can lead to depression.”
“The place that I always come for the best Sushi in Delhi is Sakae Sushi at the Ambience mall, Vasant Kunj.”
“I like to be spoken about only when I am doing meaningful work.”
“The off-screen Priyanshu is a homely person who likes to read, workout, watch films, meet friends and family. He is quite nice and I like him.”
“I have always been open towards character roles.”
“Everybody I meet is a star. In Bombay it is crazy and even TV has become so big that there are just too many stars and there is too much greed for that little space on the newspaper.”
