As an actor, you want convince the audience that you can do different things. So, if I have to run in slow motion, I am more than happy to romance.
Grey characters don't only mean broody characters. A totally smitten lover boy can be equally grey if written that way.
I think when you're a new actor in Bollywood, it's about seizing the moment. If you can prove to the audience there is an emotional vulnerability to your character, regardless of it being black or gray, I think the audience will accept you in any role - be it romantic or action.
I remember how as I kid I would love stories of every kind - whether they were narrated in school or what I read in books. Storytelling would always appeal to me, I would take part in poetry reciting, dramatics, choreography and debates. There was this fascination for performance, which finally culminated in a professional sphere.
Nitesh Tiwari is so particular about his pre-production, where he plans every aspect of his film.
When I'm doing a part, I'm not coming with any baggage of who did what. I looked at 'Force 2' as a fresh film. It's a new story and a new director.
