I'd change nothing in my career path. I was never built for being a handsome teenage star. That's just not in my psyche, I think. I would have hated to have grown up famous.
It's no new narrative to say that when people get out of child stardom, they oftentimes rebel in very serious ways.
I think that the working hours and star pressures pushed a lot of people into drugs in those days. And there seemed to have been a lot of alcoholism.
I feel bad for young actors who become huge stars too quickly, because you haven't had a chance to practice your craft a lot.
It's not that I don't want to be famous. It's just that I don't feel like the burden of responsibility on selling a film should be on the actors.
It's easy to say that he/she is a star kid and has had it easy in Bollywood, but being a star kid is the real pressure. You have to undergo a lot of pressure, as you are being constantly compared to your parents.
Every band I've been in, it's just become my total life. I feel like a child star - I've missed out on so much.
I definitely think there is a lot of expectation and pressure being a star's son.
