During my younger days, I used to massage my mother's feet every day and receive her blessings.

If you desire, you are restless.

I don't believe watching dreams but like to stick to reality. Reality is all about flood, hunger, illness.

What I treasure the most is people coming up to me in the elevator and saying, 'You really did a great job': neighbours who congratulate for a job well done or little fans who hug me and say they want to be like me.

As a child, I have seen what poverty is, and I try, to the best of my limits, to ensure that no kid should be deprived of his ambitions.

Salman Khan is doing really well in his career. I know him since the time he was growing up.

I've got more than half of Mumbai addicted to the Internet.

Danny Denzongpa knows exactly what to wear on what occasion. He is one of the most immaculately dressed people we have in the industry.

I nearly got killed in a film, 'Patthar Ke Insaan.' I nearly lost my eyes another time and have been in many accidents in my career.

My father said that I will be an actor, but I scoffed at him.

No one should tolerate indecent behaviour; it's an absolute no.

I have always wanted to work with Rekha - she is one of the most gorgeous actresses of our time.

I wanted to be a chef; I became a hero.

All my life, I have lived in the chawls. They are my people.

I never thought I would become an actor. When I started out, I never thought I would come so far. Acting was not my passion. When I experienced the highs of being an actor, I started liking it, and it gradually became my passion.

My birthday is generally a very quiet affair.

Documentary is reality. It shows the truth.

A good film is a good film.

My father Kakabhai Haribhai Shroff was an astrologer.
