I waited so long because I know how important the launch is for a
newcomer in our cinema. In this matter I want to play by their rules.
Like Ramu I believe audiences can be entertained without going into the
rut.
I'm really not nervous. I've gone through the process of the acting in
theater. I've done my best. What happens now is not in my hands. If you
have life's experiences with you nothing can stop you from being a
competent actor
I never had a problem being called a Naseeruddin Shah protégé, a Ram
Gopal Varma product or Sushmita Sen's friend. I always knew I'd have my
own identity
Seriously I suspected I was a good actor, though I didn't know it
during 'Monsoon Wedding'. Now I realize the more I learn the less I
know about acting... and life.
Everyone wants to be famous, so do I. But I cannot lose sleep over it. Today, I am not a huge box-office hit nor am I on the cover of film magazines. If I were to take stardom seriously, I would have been depressed
At the end of the day an actor is only a cog in the wheel. But experience helps. I've done six films in as many years. But I've learnt a lot more. I'm losing my unawareness and becoming more humble
