| Quotes: |
“ I actually wanted to be a chef. I thought cooking was one of the finest arts, the delight on people's faces when they like something! “ “ There was a time when I didn't even have money for a meal. Today, I am in a good place. But no matter what situation I am in, I will remain happy and peaceful. “ “ I will tell him (my younger self) not to worry about people who are trolling you for your looks. One day, a big Hollywood hero will call you 'Sexy Tamil Friend'. “ “ There's no theory in my acting, everything is practical. I have to ride the bicycle, fall down, get hurt, and learn to ride. “ “ A villain can be stylish, and his actions don't have to be explained. Heroes are boring in comparison, even anti-heroes, as there's always a justification for their bad actions. “ |
