Fame has affected me in a good way. The truth is, I never wanted to be an actor; I grew up like any other kid. I didn't belong to the film industry, nor did I think 'main hero banoonga'. I've worked my way up doing supporting roles. I took up London Dreams (2009) because it was shot abroad (smiles). I love to watch rock concerts live, but it's impossible to live that way after becoming an actor. All in all, it has been a journey of self-discovery.
Are you excited about 2017?
Last year was full of ups and downs. When 'Fitoor' didn't work, it affected me a lot. It hurts when a film doesn't do well, as you put your heart and soul into it and expectations build up. Fortunately, I started shooting for 'OK Jaanu' within a month and that helped. There's nothing like work to take your mind off set backs. Now, I am nervous and excited as 'OK Jaanu' will release next week. But yes, it's a nice way to start a year.
Do you have any New Year resolutions?
I don't believe in making New Year resolutions, but I want to buy a house soon and spend more time with my family. I have strong willpower and when I decide to do something, I do it. I don't need a particular day to make decisions.

The Best Places to Travel in September
September is the unsung hero of travel months: The busiest vacation season has come and gone, places are less crowded because kids are back in school, and as a result, prices on airfare, accommodations, and even attractions have dropped.
