Smell the roses. Smell the coffee. Whatever it is that makes you happy.

In the first 20 years of my acting life, I did not do any acting. All I did was to wear a jersey, dance, lip-sync to songs, and run after girls over mountains and in the snow.

Ranbir doesn't like to portray characters which are larger than life. I am very proud that he took such challenges.

In our country, there must be two time zones to save working hours. Why we don't have it, I have been talking about this issue for a long time.

I don't want to play father roles. And I use father roles figuratively for roles that are just hanging around... don't want to be a piece of furniture in films.

There's no formula that can make a marriage work. Sometimes two people just click.

I only know how to act. I don't know anything else.

I like to be respected as an actor.

I am waiting for roles like the one in 'Yeh Hai Jalwa.'

If you want to show cinema, make entertainment films. Sometimes they are very good, sometimes very bad, but the intention is always to make entertaining films.

I block the trolls.

I'm not interested in playing the villain as a loud caricature, one-dimensional character. I am trying to humanise evil. If you see my character in 'Aurangzeb,' I am not trying to act evil.

Both my kids are above 30 now... grown up enough to take their own decisions.

I am not because of my father, and my son Ranbir Kapoor is not because of me.

An actor's journey is never fulfilled. We always look for greener pastures, better roles, better creativity. We all want to do good work.

It is an advantage to be born in Kapoor family and to be known by that name, but it also a burden because there are lots of expectations from you.

All my life, I struggled to get roles.

I would love to do a Punjabi film.

By the grace of God, my son's career is doing very well.

I am spontaneous and not a method actor.

I know for a fact that many people repent and want to do away with their tattoos. It is all marketing and hype and nothing else. Also, tattoos stand out on fair and not wheatish complexion. God has given you a body. Why spoil it?

Any cinema has to be entertaining. Boring cinema won't work. If you want to make one, then screen it for free on TV.

I do not care about the length of my role. But it should make a difference to the story.

It was a stroke of luck when I worked in 'Agneepath.' It was a great role, something different for me.
