People used to say I'm weak in comedy. But, with 'Mahesh Khaelja' and 'Dookudu,' I have proved that I am good at comedy.

If the home is good, all will be good.

Whatever my father did were great films. I don't want to remake any of them.

I'm extremely particular how my look should be in a film.

First and foremost, I look for a great script. Then, the team that I am working with. Only then, we will be able to come up with a good film.

You have to be a little commercial, and that's what I learnt over the years.

Siva is one of the best writers in the industry, and 'Srimanthudu' is a great script.

I'm very happy to co-produce a film like 'Srimanthudu.'

'Bramhotsavam' is a celebration of families, life and togetherness. It's a film I hold close to my heart.

True, I was born and raised in Chennai, fluent in Tamil, but essentially, I am a Telugu guy and a Telugu actor.

When I am shooting a film, and it has a big schedule, I make sure that I take a week off with the family. It gives you new energy.

I love holidaying with the kids after working hard, it is amazing.

My father is an amazing person.

Once I finish shooting, I head straight home and spend time with my family. It's only when I have to promote my films that I make public appearances.

I don't go out of the way to take special care of myself.

If you have a happy home, everything is sorted, I guess.

We were five kids at home, and my mother and grandmother ensured that we all had a very grounded upbringing in Madras. Even in school, I never used to tell anyone that my dad was an actor.

I prefer to believe it's my responsibility if a film of mine works or doesn't work.

Even after marriage, our home is important for us.

From my childhood, I am like this. I never go parties and attend functions.

Getting in and out of a character takes its own time for me.

I try to do as much as I can, but I simply can't shoot two films at a time.

Fortunately or not, expectations are always high for all my films.

I don't want to smoke on screen, as I will be sending a wrong message to my fans, and I appeal to my costars too, to avoid smoking scenes if possible.
