Because of what I did in Punjabi cinema, I have got offers in Bollywood.

The universe itself was created by the sound waves which that almighty created. So music and spirituality go together. Everything is interconnected.

Definitely being spiritual helps me create good music because music is ultimately the sound of the god.

Ranbir has the ability to be a natural in front of the camera. There is nothing artificial about him. When I watch him on screen, I always feel that he is not acting. And I see this quality only in him among my contemporaries. I am a big Ranbir Kapoor fan.

I never approach comedy thinking 'I know it all.' Comedy is tough. To make people laugh is not easy.

Whatever God has given me, I feel blessed but I don't take it for granted.

Back home, no one looks at me as a star. At least I know my mother doesn't.

I think a director is hugely responsible for the fate of a film, so if it does well, he should be appreciated. As an actor, I can only perform well or choose to work with a good director in a good film.

There are times when a film turns out differently from how it was narrated. But I don't look at it as a bad thing.

My choice of script is governed by two factors - either I've to like the people associated with the project or the storyline should be interesting. I focus more on the vibe and the type of energy I get from them.

Being an entertainer, I want to play the role both of a villain and a hero.

If anyone thinks they have set a formula for success, that's not true. Because if that were to happen then people would only be copying that formula and every following film would be a copy alone.

It's a misconception that singers in Punjab use music as a backup in case their acting fails. For me, singing is the front, it's not the backup, it was acting that happened by chance.

I look at the story and see what I have got to do in the film. Sometimes the story is great, set-up is good but there isn't much for you to do. I don't want to do that.

I want to do movies with great stories. The content should be strong.

Only the Punjabi music industry has stood the test of time. Bollywood has finished the regional music industry of other languages, but the Punjabi music scene is still flourishing.

I am happy that people are taking me seriously as an actor.

Although I played a cop in 'Jatt & Juliet 2,' it was a comic role, so playing a serious cop with an important role in 'Udta Punjab' was a change.

There are so many beautiful locations in Rajasthan, so many beautiful locations in our India that have not been explored. Foreigners come and explore such places, but we fail to see those locations with that perspective.

I haven't earned much money through films.

When I am offered a film, I don't ask whether I will be singing any of the movie's tracks.

I feel happy when people hire me only as an actor.

I had heard that in Bollywood, one gets publicity without even asking for it. There are new rumours every day and the celebrities involved get disturbed.

I do one film at a time. I can't wake up early. I can't do too many films.
