On the sets of Gangs
of Wasseypur, Anurag was so impressed by me he offered me Ugly then.

thriller, didn't you have inhibitions before venturing into something so
offbeat or you just relied on the brilliant man Anurag Kashyap's instinct?
Anurag's instinct
& confidence in me.
- In spite of not having lead
roles in any of your films until now, you have shown through in all your
films.Do you think it's foolish on the part of mainstream actors to reject
good scripts only because they wouldn't be the lead actors?
To each it's own.

experience in Bollywood.

years to get here :)

futile efforts of marketing a film.

No, foster families
not yet. Parents should give parenthood the best chance they can and be
prepared for parenthood before they venture into their child's birth.
