Any recognition for an actor is good because an actor’s job is meant to induce people to react to his actions. An award is basically a culmination of so many desired reactions of the audience.

Name, fame, award and reward are all a part and parcel of an actor’s life. “I would love to be rewarded by my audience for my versatility. I want to be known as a versatile actor. I do not want to do the same thing over and over again. I pray to God that my fan base increases with each passing day and lots of viewers look forward to my work. Once that happens, the awards would follow. Audience love and reward is the highest level of satisfaction for me,” he adds.

People usually dedicate their awards to people who have been their strength and guiding force. “My biggest support is my family. They always pray for me and my success. I owe everything to them. They are very supportive, good and the greatest strength behind my success. I think it is their luck and good karma that I get so much love from so many people,” he ends on a positive note.
