However, I wished to work with Karan, Anurag Singh, director and Akshay sir.”

When I started out I didn’t even know what failure was until I saw my initial loss in Daawat-e-Ishq (2014) and everything felt thus negative. But, everyone used to say ‘Don’t worry, the tide turns for every actor’. And Golmaal came and made enough cash for four of my films (laughs). So, you have to be patient. Bad times are going to be tough but you have to wait for good times.”
