Excerpts of his chat with the media:
Admirers have commended you on your website for your acting in ‘Omkara’?
Heartily thank the audience for watching and praising me for ‘Omkara’. The audience is the real award for me.
Did Karan Johar and Shah Rukh Khan comment on ‘Omkara’ and you?
I was very upset with the media at the time of the film’s release. The words of Shah Rukh have been wrongly quoted. When I met with Shah Rukh Khan, he gave passed good comments on ‘Omkara’.
Has there any dispute between you and Shah Rukh owing to Kajol?
Shah Rukh doesn’t talk beyond limits. Kajol has worked with Shah Rukh in several films in the past and will have a chance to act together. Shah Rukh and Kajol are good friends.
Do you want to act with Shah Rukh Khan?
Why not, I don’t have any problem if the script and the character are good enough.
Last year, your two films ‘Omkara’ and ‘Golmaal’ remained successful at box office but you are still unhappy. Didn’t these films fulfill your ambition?
I am quite happy with my career. ‘Omkara’ and ‘Golmaal’ have transformed me. I am a star not stardom.
Are you happy with your preset status?
I am in search of good films. My next films are like Anubhav Sinha’s ‘Case’, Ram Gopal Verma’s ‘Sholay’, Raj Kumar Santoshi’s ‘Halla Bol’ and Rohit Shetty’s comedy thriller film ‘Sunday’.
You are playing superstar in Rajkumar Santoshi’s next film “Halla Bol”. Is the movie based on Shah Rukh or Salman’s life?
No, this film is not based on any of these actors. The story revolves around a person who has both wealth and fame. The story of the film is really good. The star cast of this film has worked extremely well.
Are you unhappy with your ‘Sholay’ co-star ‘Nisha Kothari’?
Many people face problems while working with co-stars. The problems are due to the scene and dialogues. I have also faced these types of problems. Ramu has solved this problem. I don’t think I have any personal problem with Nisha.
Recently, Kajol had said that you are a better father than a husband?
I am husband for my wife and a father for my daughter. I try to shoulder both the responsibilities in the best possible way.
Do you spend little time with your daughter due to busy schedule?
It is true that I am not able to give enough time to my daughter due to busy schedule though I try to spend as much time with her as I can.
Don’t you think you are not doing your duties properly?
No, it’s not like that. I know my responsibilities very well. I take time out to spend with my daughter. I have the responsibilities of a father as well as that of my family. So I have to take care of all.
