I don't have a Facebook or Twitter account.

I have a Blackberry which I use, but I am one of those people who can only type on it with one hand.

Training in taekwondo for eight years and then being able to do it in a film was pretty amazing.

I'm an Asian guy growing up in London so I see myself as British, but India is part of my culture.
