- I don’t take my shirt off in every film I do.
- I don’t really care about the stardom.

- ‘Aurangzeb’ for me is a right film, as there is action and drama.
- I have no plans to quit south films and come to Bollywood.
- I have always believed that when a film is being made, it has to be the director’s vision.
