It is the responsibility of filmmakers, actors and writers, who have the freedom to do the kind of work they want to do irrespective of whether it is good or not.

It is an interesting feeling to be appreciated within the industry and from the audience as well.

A terrorist for one man could be a patriot for another.

When we don't say 'male director,' then why call them 'female directors?'

In my village, Kharkara, 20 km from Rohtak, I would work in our fields of sugarcane, wheat and paddy while dreaming of the day I would join the army, and receive a hero's welcome every time I came home on leave. In our part of the world, a soldier is a star.

My father would tell me my defects but never praise me to my face. The good things about me he would only tell others when I wasn't around.

I've grown up with bhangra and Haryanvi folk dances.

I love dancing and can very well manage Bollywood dancing.

You get more time to see the growth of a character in a series, there's no scope for that in films.

I weighed 100 kg while shooting 'Paatal Lok.' I am 6 feet and therefore it might not appear that I weigh so much.

Being born in a small town, you have got many advantages. You get to experience so many things in life.

Audience want to watch a good performance at the end of the day.

I don't mind getting typecast as long as it is not overpowering me as an actor.

It feels good to get new opportunities.

Every 10-15 years, society changes. The thinking of a 10-year-old kid changes when he turns 20. Such changes can be seen in every aspect of life. People's preferences also change with time.

When you expect something, there's also a certain fear about whether or not that expectation will be fulfilled.

In someone's life, dogs can be very important which in turn changes everyone else's lives.

People who are highly motivated, when it comes to dogs, they will go to any extent. Sometimes I feel that dogs play a more important role in their lives, more than other humans do.

I have no complaints from my characters, be it in 'Commando' or 'Gangs of Wasseypur' everyone on those films was grey.

I was lucky to be a student of FTII, Pune.

I have to do good roles.

Whenever I read a script or sign a film, I don't see whether he is a bad guy or a good guy. I see how much the character is contributing to the story? How much is the importance of the character in taking the story forward? And what new I would be able to learn and what new I would be able to try in that?

I am very romantic inside.

It's foolish and such a shame that we attack those working for everyone's safety.
