I'm not the type of guy who is going to be out in front of a microphone for attention.
I'd like to play a guy who doesn't think so much. I'd like a character whose words come out before he thinks about it. I want a character who is just kind of dumb in that way. A guy who doesn't have too many dangerous, devious ideas. It would be fun to play a role like that.
'Masaan' was a small role, but people connected with it. I loved playing a man who does not have many complexities in life. I was inspired by my father for this role. You find such characters in novel or in stories. You don't find such parts in movies where characters are either good, bad, or grey.
SpongeBob is an innocent, and people respond to an innocent. I don't think it matters if you're young or old.
A man's power to connect his thought with its proper symbol, and so to utter it, depends on the simplicity of his character, that is, upon his love of truth, and his desire to communicate it without loss.
The job is interesting, and the task is difficult, but the man [Maigret] is just a decent man doing a very ordinary job.
I love the idea of a very simple 8-bit video game character struggling with the complex question: 'isn't there more to life than the role I've been assigned?'
I am not playing a villain or a negative role in 'Turram Khan.' My character is that of a simple small-town girl.
With 'Gold,' it was a very simple girl, and in 'Kabir Singh,' it's more of a glam role. That's my aim: I want to experiment as much as I can. These two are very small areas of experimentation.
I love a straightforward character. I am the guy who loves Cyclops on the 'X-Men', because he is square.
In 'Brothers,' I am going into a zone that is something that I have not done. It's a very simple and desi character. It's also a character that I think a lot of people would not have expected me to do.
It's good to play something that's black and white, and a guy that sees right and wrong. I've never played a character like that.
Mickey was simply a little personality assigned to the purposes of laughter.
