I think when we truly love something, we get the same true love in return.

I am constantly scared that I should not do or say anything that will hurt my fans.

Music is my life. If music takes a backseat, everything will go away from my life.

I am an observant. I like to observe people.

I am humbled for all the love of Indians I get from all over the world.

I am not a role model for anyone.

I will continue making music, whether or not I get opportunities in films. I know I have fans who like to listening to me sing.

I feel hockey is a tough game.

It's not like after winning an award, your job is done and you can relax. You still have to work hard.

Soorma' means someone who does something that is impossible. It's the perfect title.

I am very scared of sitting without work.

You can spread awareness through entertainment.

There is no doubt that I feel bad when a film flops, but I can't sit back and not take up new work owing to that.

I had never imagined that one day, my statue would be installed at Madame Tussauds.

When you talk of being humble, Gurdas Maan is the most humble person. He has a very pure nature.

I love working; I don't take things for granted, so I just love to do what I do whilst it lasts.

I would love to do a movie based on our desi sports kabbadi or hockey. I guess I can play these games and do the justice to them.

If I can't put my heart and soul into a film, I don't take it up.

Since I am a turbaned Sardar, I can only play Sardar roles. Either that or producers should be willing to alter the script to accommodate my physical appearance. But I won't call this a restriction.

If you're getting way too much than perhaps what you deserve, there's no insecurity. It comes up when you feel 'I expect and deserve much more but I'm not getting it.'

We are not only having a great audience for Punjabi films in north India but we are also seeing growth in other places like Mumbai, Pune, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Indore, etc. And the overseas audiences have always been good for us. Without them we couldn't have taken Punjabi cinema to such heights.

There have been many ups and downs but when you get that one push, it is amazing. When you go ahead in spite of some people trying to pull you back, that feeling has its own pleasure.

The same actor plays the role of a thief and a police officer on-screen. It's not fair to look for role models in them.

When we were shooting for 'Jatt & Juliet 2,' the director, Anurag Singh did not tell us that this was going to be a sequel. The only brief given to us was that, 'go and have fun on the sets.'

Akshay sir is very good at comedy. He has so much energy in him. He not only expresses with his dialogues but also his body. He is like Mr Bean.

Whatever religion you believe in, if you take almighty's name and follow his words obediently, you will be safe to an extent.

It is my good fortune that I am the first Sikh to be playing lead roles in Hindi films.

Before me, Milkha Singhji was honored at Tussauds. But his statue did not have him in a turban, so I think I am the first turbaned Sardar to be featured at Tussauds.

I don't talk about films even after I sign them because between the signing and the shooting, anything can happen. I am not superstitious, it's just that I don't like talking about a film that is not completed.

I do one film at a time. I can't wake up early. I can't do too many films.

I had heard that in Bollywood, one gets publicity without even asking for it. There are new rumours every day and the celebrities involved get disturbed.

I feel happy when people hire me only as an actor.

When I am offered a film, I don't ask whether I will be singing any of the movie's tracks.

I haven't earned much money through films.

There are so many beautiful locations in Rajasthan, so many beautiful locations in our India that have not been explored. Foreigners come and explore such places, but we fail to see those locations with that perspective.

Although I played a cop in 'Jatt & Juliet 2,' it was a comic role, so playing a serious cop with an important role in 'Udta Punjab' was a change.

I am happy that people are taking me seriously as an actor.

Only the Punjabi music industry has stood the test of time. Bollywood has finished the regional music industry of other languages, but the Punjabi music scene is still flourishing.

I want to do movies with great stories. The content should be strong.

I look at the story and see what I have got to do in the film. Sometimes the story is great, set-up is good but there isn't much for you to do. I don't want to do that.

It's a misconception that singers in Punjab use music as a backup in case their acting fails. For me, singing is the front, it's not the backup, it was acting that happened by chance.

If anyone thinks they have set a formula for success, that's not true. Because if that were to happen then people would only be copying that formula and every following film would be a copy alone.

Being an entertainer, I want to play the role both of a villain and a hero.

My choice of script is governed by two factors - either I've to like the people associated with the project or the storyline should be interesting. I focus more on the vibe and the type of energy I get from them.

There are times when a film turns out differently from how it was narrated. But I don't look at it as a bad thing.

I think a director is hugely responsible for the fate of a film, so if it does well, he should be appreciated. As an actor, I can only perform well or choose to work with a good director in a good film.

Back home, no one looks at me as a star. At least I know my mother doesn't.

Whatever God has given me, I feel blessed but I don't take it for granted.

I never approach comedy thinking 'I know it all.' Comedy is tough. To make people laugh is not easy.

Ranbir has the ability to be a natural in front of the camera. There is nothing artificial about him. When I watch him on screen, I always feel that he is not acting. And I see this quality only in him among my contemporaries. I am a big Ranbir Kapoor fan.
