You win some, you lose some. You get hit you don't get hit, but it's not about how hard you get hit. I think it's about how hard you get hit, then still get up and deliver an even harder punch. I think that's what it is all about.

I like being adventurous in my choice of roles. It may not be the prescribed way, but it is mine and I have enjoyed giving my best to all directors.

Vidyut Jammwal is like an older brother; I will love him for the rest of my life.

Now for me, acting is all I want to do for the rest of my life. So I am going to give 100 per cent to it. Whether I am becoming poor or rich, famous or unknown, it does not matter. This is what I am here for.

I know I must be true to myself.

I am not averse to the idea of being in a relationship. In fact, I think everything in this world can be solved through love.

Whoever you are, you have to prove your worth.

It is not about being a hero or a villain; I want to be a solid and passionate actor.

I was disappointed with 'My Friend Pinto.' Everyone put a lot of effort into it but the final product was something no one was ready for. The story was altered and a lot of scenes were edited. I got a lot of flak for my performance.

I really do look up to Salman bhai. To maintain that kind of physique for so many years is not easy.

My diet consists of low carbs, zero sugar, zero fat, zero dairy product, lots of fish, chicken, red meat, protein shake and lots of vegetables like spinach and mushrooms.

My favorite destinations include places in south of France, including Cannes.

With time, the one thing that I have learnt is, never taking the opportunity for granted.

I don't know if I am like her, but I am told that my eyes and my smile are like mom's.

I'm a very laidback sort of guy, but people assume I am a serious actor and a serious person. That is not true.

I love travelling.

I have no choice but give my best, even if it is a small role. There are a lot of expectations from the family and industry.

I was just 19 years old when I did my first film and had no plan to act, or to become an actor. It was like a paid holiday so that I could earn good pocket money and then party more with my friends.

It's a full time job - trying to be at peace in my life, trying to be a better person and be best in every way I can be, be a good brother, be a good actor and a good human being.

Umrika' was one of the most wonderful collaborations I had the privilege of being a part of.

Prateik means symbol so I symbolise certain things in my life.

People celebrating Ganpati should look into the environment as well. One should opt for a clay Ganpati, as it melts in the water.

Hard work is the only way to success. You have to be tough, stay tough.

I spend about two hours every time when I'm in the gym.
