Being involved in 'The Hobbit' has been a huge boost for me. It's really put me on the map and helped me be taken more seriously as an actor.
The game against the Vikings back in my second year stands out. It was kind of a turnaround for us. It allowed us to make a run at the playoffs for the first time in quite a while. The memories are so many it's hard to pin one down.
My first film, 'Ishaqzaade,' did well, and I got four damn good films because of it.
I'm quietly becoming New York's premiere actor. People don't understand. They have me pigeon-holed as a comedian.
When people ask me to describe my journey in Hindi cinema post-'Barfi!' I actually don't know what to say.
'Kahaani' gave me popularity and 'Gangs of Wasseypur' stardom.
When I did 'Think Like A Man', I would run into people who were acting like it was the first thing I'd ever done. I was at the premiere of 'Think Like A Man,' and people were coming up to me, like, 'Man, you're going to get work after this, bruh.'
I have been fortunate that 'Pink' has been that film which gave my career a push. I owe a lot to Shoojit Sircar for having faith in me and my co-stars Taapsee Pannu and Amitabh Bachchan sir.
Lilith Fair was a great experience for us the first time we played it. We were... not a new band, but a new band as far as mainstream kind of airplay or success.
Lots of people knew who Kevin Hart was a decade before he hit it big.
It wasn't my intention in going after this part but I suppose now I do. The adult roles are a lot meatier - you're not always just the daughter or the girlfriend or whatever.
When I sang in 'Aashiq Banaya Aapne,' I never imagined the song would be such a rage.
I started in TV movies and then had success in my move to features with 'Night Shift' and 'Splash'.
I struggled for a while, but when I was cast in an Off Broadway show called 'Once Upon a Mattress,' that kind of put me on the map.
I've been very lucky to debut with Yashraj films, then being directed by Karan Johar and now Amol Gupte.
Whatever I have done so far has led me to 'Kaabil.' It is a big opportunity for me to establish myself more commercially. It is a huge platform.
I think 'The Witch' was actually my 100th job. Only took me 100 jobs to get a lead! But it did change things a lot. It was a magical thing for Rob Eggers to pick me out of the all the actors he could have for that part. It was an amazing part. It's changed my career massively.
I am not at a level where I will be flooded with offers. Hopefully, things will change after 'Pink.' It is one film after 'Shaitan' where I am hoping things will change for me.
Denzel has been that leading man, but it took him a while to get to Training Day and Hurricane Carter.
You'll be offered the 'lead' in this new hot film with such-and-such A-list director, 'a fabulous part' - a fabulous part? A fabulous part is a character with a soul, who starts here and goes to there, you know? There aren't many of those.
Nick was cast first in both 'Smashed' and 'Kings.'
When I was offered to sing 'Tere Bina' in 'Guru' by A. R. Rahman sir, it was a surreal experience. The song clicked, and many composers took notice of me and my work then.
I was shooting for 'Bobby Jasoos' when I was offered 'Khamoshiyan.'
Frankly, I hadn't expected my role in 'Avvai Shanmughi' to be so significant.
Marcus Rashford has done really well. He had a great first season, and then people had really high expectations, but he showed his quality on the pitch in the second season.
