How is 2020 treating you?
2020 has begun on a magical note, I just came back at the beginning of the year from a wonderful vacation in Europe touring three cities and immediately dived straight into shooting. I am doing some really exciting projects this year. Last year I was mostly out of the country and traveling, this year I hope to spend more time in India and do a lot more exciting work and I just feel positive and happy.
How has your transformation been from Bollywood to the West?
About my transformation from Bollywood to the West, well the process has been fun. I think things aren't really planned but I do think that there is such a healthy curiosity about India and I do want to be part of this wave of interesting content that is being made at the same time I always wanted to keep my feet firmly planted in Mumbai. I love films and I love Indian movies.
From Zack Snyder to Anurag Kashyap to all the exciting directors I have worked with. I have always been a director's actor. So for me, it's always about the story and the script, I am working with great directors and trying to transform myself into playing different characters. That's always been most important for me. So I really get a massive taken working with different people in different styles and different genres. You know for me acting is about self-exploration and I'm really really fortunate that I've had the opportunity to work with such different and diverse minds.
