Sushant Singh Rajput

“A man should definitely own a couple of blue denims, white crew neck T-shirt, a versatile blazer, comfortable pair of boxers, and coloured sneakers.”

“Since I think I am very boring in normal life, I tend to hide behind all these exciting characters, making people believe that I am someone else entirely. That feeling is very powerful.”

“Cricketers have to perform in front of millions, and there are no retakes. If then you become a hero, you deserve all the accolades coming your way.”

“What people think of me doesn't affect me. As bizarre as it sounds, I don't have a Google alert on my phone; I don't read newspapers, and I don't watch television. If something important happens, I will get to know about it.”

“If you are seeing something for the first time, one of your first reactions should be fascination.”

“I left everything I had to become an actor. So, I better be excited, or otherwise, there is no point in doing all this. Else I would end up being disappointed with whatever I achieve.”

“I really wanted to buy a Range Rover. It was a big dream, and the day I bought it, I was very happy, but by evening, I was immune to it. That's when I realized that excitement, if it's happiness, is not in reaching the goal but in the process. Thus process trumps over realization.”

“I am not saying that those who crave for conventional stardom are wrong in their aspirations. But that's not what I want.”

“I cannot think that I am a good cricketer and just become one. For this, one needs skill.”

“Our job, as actors, is not to tell the audience how interesting we are, but to entertain them with our films.”

“I have been blessed with strong leg muscles, and dancing really exercises one's legs.”

“For me, the opposite of happiness isn't sadness but boredom.”

“I might not be over-enthusiastic about socialising and making friends, but I am not a loner. I love hanging out with my friends, and I do it often when I am not working. Maybe, since I am not often invited to the 'happening' parties of our industry, where the media is around, I have earned the reputation of being a loner.”

“Frankly, I'm an actor right now because of Shah Rukh. When I was in school and even when studying engineering, I used to watch his films.”

“The best thing is to accept the circumstances, not take them personally, deal with them, stop complaining, and give everything your best.”

“The only strong opinion that I have about myself is that I don't have any opinions.”

“I think, for every actor, the most challenging part of playing a character, specially a real-life character, is to convince yourself that you are the character.”

“I can also romance a guy if I like the character and the script. Obviously, only in the film!”

“If you have skills to pull off even a four-hour film, people will go and watch it.”

“I am ecstatic that 'KPC' was a commercial hit and was critically acclaimed. The 60 days we shot for it were the best days of my life. I still get goosebumps when I think of them.”
