I have always been misunderstood.

I don't think I am a very big star on TV.

I am known to wear my heart on my sleeves.

I don't like people lying; I like honesty.

I think one needs a companion at some point in life.

My life is an open book. You're welcome to speculate.

Off-screen, I am the most outgoing and friendly person.

I am blessed with a funny gene that makes me enjoy life.

If I was constantly on TV, people would get bored of me.

My diet is high on protein, which keeps me energised and fresh.

Just because I am a celebrity doesn't mean I can't say, 'Sorry.'

Ankita is the best wife and the best companion I could ever get.

Any common man can relate to the story that 'Ye Hai Mohabbatein' has.

There was a time when I had no work, and I had to sit at home for 4 years.

Success is a collective job, and one can't claim the credit for themselves.

For me, stardom means when people know your name when you appear on screen.

Adopting this lifestyle and opting to exercise has helped me a lot in life.

London has always been my favourite city. I visit it almost every other year.

People are sensible enough to know who's dragging my name in dirt for publicity.

It is a proud moment for any male actor to have thousands of females chasing you.

My trainer ensures I eat right and balance out in between my hectic shoot schedule.

My fitness instructor helped me with strength training, muscle building, and toning.

You cannot go far alone. You enjoy your journey better if you have people by your side.

We don't get offered roles because of who we are but because of what we delivered in the past.

When I will be with the perfect girl at the perfect place, that would be a perfect date for me.

People might be surprised because I settled for an arranged marriage, but that's what's chosen for us.

My fans have always been supportive during my highs and lows. They have been the best set of fans, ever.

My role model has been Shah Rukh Khan. There is something or the other for one to learn from his career.

At the end of the day, you entertain for few hours, but people remember a good human being for a longer time.

There is something like destiny. I don't really care if people doubt or express shock over whether our marriage will work.

I do a lot of weight training, and my workouts are intense, which include cardios, core body workouts, and functional training.

Atmosphere on the sets of 'YHM' is absolutely brilliant. It's kind of picnic always, and we have a gala time shooting together.

I don't belong to the slums, but to play Naru in 'City Of Gold,' I had to live for months in a real chawl before we shot the film.

I always try to balance life by thinking failure of any kind, be it relationship or any project, should not affect me as an individual.

I am quite a fitness freak. I may not have the time to sleep, but a workout is a must. I have even set up a small personal gym on the sets.

Shah Rukh Khan started his career with television, and now he is a superstar. You can't generalise and say that TV actors can't make it to films.

I understand that people have aspirations, and everyone wants to play the lead role. But, I do believe that one must climb the ladder from the first step.

I am from Mumbai. I studied at the Utpal Sanghvi School at Juhu and then went to the Mithibai College. I come from a business family, and I am the only son.

My mom has always been beside me, always telling me what's right and what's not, guiding me through it all, keeping me away from bad company and from bad habits.

I was a kid when I did the hit show 'Kasturi' in 2007. Maybe stardom went to my head and I thought I was bigger than I actually was. I took everything for granted.

Once in a while I do put up a video or a thank you tweet for my fans. I think our interaction cements our bond. Getting so much love from them makes me feel blessed.

If you want to be loved, keep your head on your shoulders and feet on the ground. There is nothing wrong in that. I do the same, and others should also follow this motto.

I respect people's feelings when they say they love me, but it is completely their choice of expression, and I am alien to it. People have a right to express, but that's it.

I am an actor, and that's the most important thing to me. I cannot imagine a life where I would be anything else but an actor, so putting all my energy into a shot comes naturally to me.

I used to think I was a big star. And I used to think that the TV industry, Balaji, and my show will not survive without me. But then I realised that you cannot be bigger than your work.

My mother has always kept the entire family together - my dad, due to his business, has always been travelling, and hence, she at times had to play the role of a father and a mother as well.

People will bring up all kinds of masala, but all that matters to me are my fans. They are my strength. I am overwhelmed by their support and love. It just pays off for all the hard work you put in.

I've always loved the media and will continue to do so, but I do feel with due respect to all concerned that surrounding us and giving us no space to move becomes difficult when you're out with family.

I always wanted to be an actor, so I began to prepare myself for a career in acting. I did a course at Kishore Namit Kapoor's acting school. I was with Shiamak Davar's dance school and also did theatre with Nadira Babbar.

My ideal woman would be someone with both beauty and intelligence. Someone who can hold her own in a conversation, gets along with my family and respects elders, loves children, and have a sense of humour as whacky as mine.
