It has been great journey from where I have started to where I am today. I am really blessed with God's grace.

I come from a very humble background. My father had to work really hard to become an assistant director. For a large part of his youth, he worked in a mill and took up odd jobs to make ends meet. We lived in a small room and could only afford a meal a day.

Apart from 'VIP' being a blockbuster movie, the various characters such as mine, the Luna bike I use in the movie, the lovable amma and appa, a pet dog named Harry Potter, the innocent brother, etc., had a huge reach among the audiences.

I don't know why, but rain comes into my head the minute I think of my childhood.

While I do not believe in idol worship, I believe in energy.

I never wanted to let go of the opportunity, and so I hit upon 'VIP 2'.

There is no such thing as a Bollywood hero or Hollywood hero. All you see on the screen is the lead actor's interpretation of the role that has been conceived by the writer.

Every man plays many roles. So far, I have played father the best.

What I didn't expect was 'VIP' becoming something of a cult and one of my biggest hits.
