“I think when you're a new actor in Bollywood, it's about seizing the moment. If you can prove to the audience there is an emotional vulnerability to your character, regardless of it being black or gray, I think the audience will accept you in any role - be it romantic or action.”
“One of the things I love about acting is that there is always scope for growth.”
“I spent my childhood all over the country. In certain parts where I grew up, films were this fantasy world.”
“There is something very exciting when you're playing a villain. You're being a rebel within the story because you are breaking the norms, and also when it comes to the structure of what a conventional lead is supposed to be.”
“Things that matter are a great story, entertainment, how the lead part moves the story forward and who the directors are.”
“Every time a medal is won on the national or international platform, our country really enjoys winners but we don't appreciate the effort that goes into creating winners.”
“I would prefer to not talk about films I have not been a part of.”
“It's challenging playing grey characters because there's no right way and you get to make your own rules.”
“My wishlist of directors, who I want to work with is endless. I want to work with Vishal Bhardwaj, Dibakar Banerjee, Karan Johar and many more.”
“It is every actor's dream to work at YRF and I feel very fortunate to be given this opportunity.”
“When you play an anti-hero, it is a task to make people empathise with your character.”
“When I'm doing a part, I'm not coming with any baggage of who did what. I looked at 'Force 2' as a fresh film. It's a new story and a new director.”
“I get very competitive with myself and always look to better myself from my previous projects. I have learned that it's important to work on the craft than the project.”
“I want to take up work in different genres.”
“There is something challenging in shooting something in just one day and there is freedom knowing there is going to be no censorship.”
“We grew up climbing trees, playing outdoors and cycling.”
“My first film was very static.”
“I virtually grew up at Air Force bases, and when I was younger, I'd dream of wearing a uniform like my father and grandfather. But when I turned 10, I felt theatre and acting were my calling.”
“My only criteria while selecting roles is that it should be a lead part in an interesting story where the character has depth and layers.”
“I haven't been an athlete in school or college, though I have played basketball and football.”
