I believe that cinema picks up ideas from society and not the other way round.

Change is the nature of life but challenge is the future of life. So challenge the changes. Never change the challenges.

When Shah Rukh stated, “Bhootnath... will be among the top three hits of the year!”, I told him, “Aapke moonh mein dudh, ghee, shakkar sab!

Frankly I've never really subscribed to these adjectives tagging me as an 'icon', 'superstar', etc. I've always thought of myself as an actor doing his job to the best of his ability.

Donate and do not talk about it, they say you do nothing for the society; do and talk about it, they say you seek publicity!

I don't use any techniques; I'm not trained to be an actor. I just enjoy working in films.

I have never been a superstar and never believed in it.

Everyone must accept that we will age and age is not always flattering.

I have never really been confident about my career at any stage.

Basically I am just another actor who loves his work and this thing about age only exists in the media.

I sometimes lament the fact that I do not have the benefit of a complete and ailment free body structure.

When your inner light shines your outer world glows.

If the second dinosaur to the left of the tall cycad tree had not happened to sneeze and thereby fail to catch the tiny, shrew-like ancestor of all the mammals, we should none of us be here.

The worst thing about being famous is the invasion of your privacy.

Happy is the man who can make a living by his hobby

The world seemed less scary and I started to like myself a little bit more.

You put three girls in a house, and all of a sudden before you know it, youre talking about boys and drinking whiskey, and things go down and you get deep real quick.

Trust me, when they read the [Oscar] results, my face was...frozen. But then I thought about it, and I just decided just to...let it go.

In life we try to grow and better ourselves. As an artist, I feel like I've grown tremendously.

Abuse is an indirect species of homage.
