QUOTES BY R. Madhavan

I learned different ways of working out. I learned a lot about my body. Let me just say that Arnold Schwarzenegger had 20-inch biceps when he did his first film, and when I did 'Saala Khadoos,' being a vegetarian, I managed 18 and half inches.

I'm fantastic at cooking up stories. In the kitchen, I can, at best, make tea and a badly shaped dosa.

Golf has always been a passion over the years.

I have always acted in films where women have an equal, if not bigger, role than mine. Don't the kind of films you do reflect your personality?

I don't have anything fresh in terms of raw foods or salad after 4 P.M. And no food after 7 P.M.

I might sound audacious, but the Mahatma has been a great inspiration. He had the conviction to live with his beliefs in the face of total disbelief.

Oh, I have very limited will power. I wish I could change that. I am working on it, though. I am too easygoing.

When it comes to filmmaking, we have to deal with ego, anger, and a lot more; barring all these, how the team works towards the outcome matters.

I don't think there's anymore chocolate boy left in me... Like, if I do the roles on the screen that border on romance, it will be age-appropriate.

I struggle on many fronts on having to move to a different level, having to cater to constantly evolving audiences.

I can think of doing TV shows if the money is good.
