I wanted to get into films, and my parents were against it. I convinced my mom, and finally she convinced my dad. My dad then felt, who best to launch his son than him? So he launched me, and here I am.Collection: Mom
My closest friends today are, in fact, my friends from college.
I am like a friend to my kids. My wife, Sangeeta, handles their studies, etc.
I liked Michael Jackson and used to practice his steps. I enjoy dancing!
I've the highest respect and regards for Shankar sir. He has taken Tamil cinema to a new level. I would have loved to work with him, but there are some date hassles.
Controversies are part and parcel of making a big film.
I can't stop people from writing imaginative stories about me entering politics.
Even today, people tell me that the slapstick humour in 'Friends' is the most viewed comedy track on television. Siddique knows the art of mixing slapstick with genuine humour.
My son, Sanjay, and I discuss a lot of things. Like, he gives me feedback on my films and what his friends say at school.
As for pressure, there's always the desire to give my best to every film. After all, so many people put in so much of hard work.
I would like my kids to study well.
Many use Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes for daily transactions like going to theatres, malls, and trading purpose. People like these are unnecessarily put to inconvenience.
Though the demonetisation move should be welcomed, govt should have planned well in advance to ensure that no common man suffer.
I am not with any political party. I laugh at media reports of my entering politics.
I will be extremely happy if people start questioning political parties when they make electoral alliances.
