For me, acting is sacred.

Theatre polished me as an artist.

I am not a comedian, I am an actor.

I am not scared of getting typecast.

I love making people smile and laugh.

I have always stayed true to my craft.

Fukrey' was my first attempt at comedy.

I had always been a very pampered child.

The word jugaad means a lot to us Indians.

While acting is a passion, hosting is fun.

It is the vibe of a city that makes it unique.

I was always sorted; I wanted to become an actor.

People make a city, it's not the other way round.

I love crime, I love sci-fi and many other things.

I do not get caught up in mundane, routine things.

Traffic snarls or jet life doesn't make a city fast.

I am open to doing TV but it will be very selective.

The majority of scripts I get are in the comedy genre.

When somebody abuses in public, we don't pay attention.

Making people smile makes me feel good from the inside.

It's important to be seen in different films and banners.

I feel blessed to get the opportunity to have so much work.

I had no idea about how my life would change after 'Fukrey.'

I have done many comedies, but none of my roles are repetitive.

I am not the fittest guy, I don't have biceps and six-pack abs.

I want to do a film like 'Jolly LLB' or something in that space.

Every character, if fleshed out properly, is being taken seriously.

It's good to have people in your life around whom you can be yourself.

As an audience, I must share that I was never a fan of a horror films.

During college days, I started working with a line production company.

If you look at my track record, I have only done saaf-suthri family movies.

I didn't reject 'Good News.' The situation was such that it couldn't happen.

I am not a conventional hero. I am a regular guy trying to entertain people.

I genuinely like to make people laugh. It is one of the toughest things to do.

I lost my father. He had diabetes and high BP and so he died of kidney failure.

I have done four years of rigorous theatre before I finally started doing films.

The biggest reward for any actor is to be recognised by the characters they play.

I performed in plays like 'Ashwatthama' and 'Andha Yug.' It was hardcore theatre.

The toughest challenge for any actor is to get accepted and loved by the audience.

What better way to enjoy rains than lazing around in your house and admiring nature.

My mom used to make delicious aloo ke parathe, and would give me two for school lunch.

It's good to have genuine people around you, who are there for you when you need them.

I was offered daily soaps in the past but that was something I did not want to take up.

Heavy food tends to make you lethargic and can interfere with your whole acting process!

Chhichhore' is really close to all of our hearts. We had a great time while making the film.

Hosting a game show is quite interactive and non-fictional shows are a part of entertainment.

I was confident while facing the camera because I was comfortable in front of a live audience.

As long as you are getting to do what you love and getting paid to do it, it's the best feeling.

To do a film with Govinda, who is a legend in that genre, whose timing is impeccable was challenging.

When I got the confirmation that I had been chosen for 'Fukrey,' it was the happiest moment of my life.
