"Overthinking is not a negative thing"
Brunch|December 10, 2022
Sunny Singh feels he always ends up bonding his Adipurush crew-Prabhas, Kriti Sanon, Saif Ali Khan and Om Raut. Sunny claims he's made good friends in the film industry, including Akshay Kumar. "Whenever I text him, he replies. We are quite similar, and speak only in Punjabi. He's special to me," the actor says.
"Overthinking is not a negative thing"

Sunny comes from a close-knit family, with whom he spends at least three hours every day. His dad came to Mumbai to become a hero and has done around 300 action films till date. Sunny wanted to become a hero from the time he lived in JB Nagar in Andheri East, and won dance and fancy-dress competitions. After several auditions, standing in long queues and coping with rejection, he was cast in Pyaar ka Punchnama and Sonu Ke Titu Ki Sweety. He says, "I'm playing the lead in films and we've moved to Juhu, fulfilling my parents' dream."

The actor loves driving, music, cinnamon latte and black coffee. "I used to have five coffees but I would get a little pensive, so I stopped," laughs the actor, who says he plays Xbox at night. "But I keep my door shut so that I don't keep anyone awake!" -DINESH RAHEJA

List three things no one knows about you.

1. I bite my nails a lot... it's weird.

2. I have OCD about personal hygiene-I brush twice and bathe thrice a day.
