Their immense popularity and reach to Indians all over the world made me a household name and it felt great that my characters connected with people so well.”
The actor is known for portraying romantic characters on-screen and admits that because of that doing a negative character came was a challenge.

I have always tried to break my comfort zones by accepting challenging roles as well. I thank my audience to give me so much of love and accept my work,” he said.
Asked if he thinks, actors in India get typecast easily, he said, “It might be true that actors get typecast, but that also reflects that people love what you do and want to see you, again and again, doing the same things.”
