I always believe that one can't interfere in another's work. Once I start work on any film, I surrender myself completely and blindly follow the director.

When my film flops, I believe it is my mistake. There have been times when I didn't come out of my house because my films didn't do well. I lock myself in for months. I don't talk to people. I feel bad for producer, director, for those who lost money. It's never about myself or my career alone.

I don't have any dream role. I give my 100% to every character I play, and when the film clicks, it automatically becomes a dream role.

I believe children's blessings are very powerful.

The only thing I have learnt over the years is that if you enjoy your work and put in the best efforts, it will show. If you follow this process, things work out. But if you go chasing a formula, success will elude you.

'Bramhotsavam' is a celebration of families, life and togetherness. It's a film I hold close to my heart.
