In my house, my mother is my superhero.

I am an over-thinker and tend to stress a lot.

Spiderman is the underdog, and I love underdogs.

I am like my mom: early to bed and early to rise.

I am a day dreamer. I visualise a lot of things at the same time.

I think stardom means a big responsibility that one has to shoulder.

I am who I am. I am not very complicated. I am simple and an introvert.

Action is a universal language, so everyone understands a punch and a kick.

I am not at all stylish. For me, style is a state of mind and individuality.

I am happy with my name. It is such an attraction, and it makes people laugh.

I am comfortable in my character's skin. I am uncomfortable being in my own skin.

I definitely think there is a lot of expectation and pressure being a star's son.

I wish I could say I am a rebel for love in real life. I don't think I am so cool.

In school, I would run away whenever there was trouble, as I would get bullied a lot.

If I have to use a body double, it means I'm not well prepared to do what I have to do.

I can stand up for what I believe in. I don't take the word 'rebel' in a negative connotation.

Martial arts is what pulled me through tough times, and it is one of the reasons for my happiness.

I look for roles where I can do justice, show people a side of Bollywood they haven't seen before.

I will benefit from being a part of this industry, but I also want the industry to benefit from me.

After my 12th standard, I started preparing for the film industry. I've had no formal acting training.

Apparently, I used to bite, scratch and growl at people when I was young, so my parents named me 'Tiger.'

I don't have that X factor; I have to bank on my skills, be true to my character, and hope to be accepted.

There are so many talented actors in my contemporaries and my seniors... I seek inspiration from each one of them.

Hrithik Roshan is my idol both onscreen as well as off screen. I wish that I could become just 50 percent like him.

Every son's first superhero is his father, and it was the same for me. For me, he was Superman and Batman combined.

Michael Jackson is so unique, and I look up to him and try to imbibe as much from him and marry it to my own style.

I really respect actors much more now that I am one because I realise what hard work goes into being part of the industry.

I have had a lot of crushes but have never had the courage to go up to a girl and say what I feel. I am scared of rejection.

My becoming an actor wasn't planned. My interest always lied in sports such as football, martial arts, gymnastics and dance.

The day I think I've achieved everything will be the day I fail. There is no end to learning, and I want to continue being a student.

After marriage, my love won't be divided between my mom and my wife. It will be doubled. My mom has always been as much my hero as my father.

The best feeling in the world for me is when my parents say they are proud of me; I just want to give them all the happiness that they deserve.

I want to better myself with every film. My goal is to be at the highest level someday, and I know I will get there, too. I have strong work ethics.

I am not an outgoing person. I am a very aloof person who gives a lot to his work. It's very difficult to have a personal life with this kind of mindset.

Whenever I meet children's parents, they complain that the kids don't sleep until they listen to my whistle baja song! My songs have captivated the kids.

Since childhood, I wanted to become a superhero. When I do anything in real life, I believe that I am a superhero, like in the way I fight, dance, or jump.

Being star kids, there are certain expectations to live up to. There's a certain pressure from the public. And, if your film doesn't work, it's even worse.

I never liked going to school and would sham and play football. I played in the centre forward position. If ever given a choice, I would love to represent Barcelona.

I'm anti-social, and I don't have too many friends. I'm in my own world doing my own things - training in martial arts, dancing, or watching a Michael Jackson video.

I couldn't ask for better parents. I keep that at the forefront of whatever I do, and every time I feel like I can't take another step, I see their faces, and that drives me.

My mom is my biggest support and critic. I've tried to be a good son, and I don't think I've given her a single day of grief. I want her to know she has my unconditional love.

It is easier for a star kid to get noticed than for a person coming from a non-film background. That being said, I didn't get my first movie because I was Jackie Shroff's son.

We are entertainers. We have to give our audience a good time. If my name serves that purpose, if that brings a smile on your face, then I think it is good and my job has been done.

Doors opened for me because of who I am. But the downside is, there is way way too much expectation from me, much more than there would have been if I were from outside the film industry.

Growing up, my inspirations were Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, all these martial arts legends. I wanted to express my talent on screen in a certain way. I felt that it made me a little different.

I would just urge the youth today to indulge in some sort of physical activity on a regular basis. A holistic approach is essential, and that also means you need to stay happy and positive.

I think cinema is so visually driven now, and people are so taken in by the glamour, gloss and all things good looking that we don't appreciate the craft as much as we used to in the bygone era.

I admire Hrithik Roshan for his work a lot. He has an edge over others because he is very hard on himself, he's never complacent, and he's still not happy with that. How much more perfect can you get than that?

A lot of people think I'm gay. I have really red lips, so they say I wear lipstick; they say my dance is very feminine, and a lot of people think I look like a girl. But that's fine. I take the criticism positively.

Stuntmen don't have a lavish life. They are such hard working people, but not respected enough. And I don't like that. If I become something in my life, I want to give them a better life, take them to a higher level.
