If an actor can emotionally bond with the viewer, then it does not matter if he is handsome or ordinary looking.

I agree to do a film if I like the subject.

I am interested in doing anything that makes for a good watch.

Doing the same thing over and over again can be boring, I want to explore as much as I can.

Maldives has a fun, relaxed and approachable vibe. I think I have a similar personality.

Mumbai is the kind of place where you learn how to be street smart... unless you're way too overprotected.

I love music - anything that catches my ears - but it's more about lots of rock 'n' roll and really funky electronic music.

I wanted my own rock band and stuff like that, but things didn't work out. I didn't have the patience to write my own songs and learn it and everything.

Working with Aamir Khan was awesome. There's so much one can learn from him.

My father is my hero and that's never going to change.

I'm a health and fitness freak. I love it.

Yes, I love the movie business. In fact, there's no business like show business.

I have been watching Hollywood films from childhood.

I think I have very strong bones.

I try and work out every day if possible, or as many times as possible in a week. I concentrate on one body part at a time, and spend at least two to two-and-a-half hours on really intense weight training.

I don't think anyone can replace the brand 'Bachchan.' You can call him a brand. But for me, he defines Indian cinema when it comes to actors.

People have talked about a biopic on my mother. And I am excited about it. In such a short span, it was one hell of a life lived. It is special. I would love to have a biopic made on her.

I never wanted my fans to think I'm perfect.

I want to take up anything that excites me. It can be a drama, action or a comedy.

I am a fan of cinema. The genre has never mattered much to me.

I want to work on projects that I can connect with and those that establish a connectivity with the audience too.

As an actor, I try to work in as many films as I can.

I am proud of whatever my parents have achieved. In fact, it drives me to excel in life, to perform even better and explore myself.

A lot of things have hurt me about the industry. I don't want to be very vocal about this but it's an everyday fight with Bollywood. It's like a love hate relationship.
