AMMY VIRK

Doing comedy and romance is easy, if I compare it with playing the role of a real-life person.

Also, the times have changed, the Punjabi cinema is growing. Movies and songs are being made in such a manner that even a non-Punjabi can relate to them.

Fitness for me is a passion. Yes, my profession demands it, but that works more as motivation for me. And, like I get motivated by looking at pictures of Bollywood or Hollywood stars with fab bodies, I want others to take that motivation from me.

'Haaye ve' is a very special song that evokes many emotions.

I feel any actor can deliver a dialogue but real acting is how one reacts to the dialogue.

My body is like a rubber gum, I will transform as the character demands, but at the same time I would like to say that we should indulge in sports and be physically active to stay fit.

Anyone, if he has a will and basic knowledge, can create something substantial.

Since 'Qismat' did well independently, it was embraced by Bollywood.

Choosing hockey to make a sports movie was a bit tough but I wanted to show people the hard work a hockey player puts in while going through his practice.

Fashions come and go, but good health is a treasure to keep.

As a singer-turned-actor, you will already have a fan base. However, if you don't do well in the movies, your career in music is also at risk.

'Bhuj' has a strong ensemble and I play a Sikh fighter pilot in it.

After watching 'Dangal,' I called my writer and told him that I wanted to do a sports film for Punjab because no sports movies have been ever made in Punjab.

In India, sports as a career has its own set of obstacles, be it from parents or society, but Harjeet, despite circumstances, and without any support decided to fight and lived his dream of being a remarkable player.

'Namastey London' is my favourite Bollywood film, it is a complete pack - it has entertainment, drama, emotion and comedy.

'Harjeeta' is a film based on the inspiring story of a sportsman, grappling with life's struggles, and surviving against all odds and managing to end the nation's 15-year-old drought in the Junior Championship by lifting the coveted trophy.

Any film which makes me play myself on the screen comes easy for me.

There is a lot one can learn from Akshay sir, if one needs to learn punctuality and how to shoot in time, one should learn that from Akshay Kumar.

It is always thrilling to attempt something new and it feels great when your efforts are awarded positively.

I am not a trained actor. My real learning began on the sets.

Most of my songs are emotional romantic numbers, so they are likely to suit a few situations in films.

When I first took up an acting assignment, I knew nothing about the industry or the responsibilities attached to the profession. I just went, played my part and that was that.

I have the same friends I had before I turned a singer or an actor.

Singing soothes me. It is something that I have always been doing and will continue to do.

After you have built a fanbase, people call you to promote their films. Often, it leads to acting offers. After that, it' just a matter of your film working.
