“We had nothing in hand and my father used to live on the street. The profession of acting happened to him when B.R. Chopra picked him up for a film, and my father acted just to earn money for survival.”

“When I joined the film industry I looked forward to different roles, unfortunately that did not materialise.”

“For me it is important to mould myself as the director wants. That's my challenge as an actor.”

“One summer, my friend and I went to summer camp, and I acted in some plays there, and I fell in love with it.”

“'Via Dolorosa' is the only thing I have ever acted in my life, professionally, and I'll never act again.”
