Angad Bedi

Everybody goes through hardships but hardships make you the person you are, and I feel that is important.

We like to keep Mehr's pictures little private because everyone's pictures start coming on social media and then there is so much pressure on the kids, the paps flash in their eyes and I am not comfortable with it.

A child should be a child for as long as possible.

I am not a big fan of seeing kids on social media.

I've never tried to impress anybody in my life.

I wear my heart on my sleeve, if I want to do something, I go ahead and do it. I think I learnt that from my dad.

If you are part of good projects and working with good filmmakers, you will automatically get good roles.

Star power will always remain relevant but content has become the king.

No role is big or small; every character does its magic and brings its own connect with the audience.

Janhvi is extremely spontaneous and hardworking. A lot of times when she is performing, you see glimpses of Srideviji in her acting and she has the same twinkle in her eyes.

Firstly, what anyone does in their personal life, I am no one to comment on that. Secondly, allegations can be levelled at anyone. What if tomorrow someone makes an allegation against me? What do I do? How do I? Is there a probe? Does it get proved? Is it true... there are many questions I have regarding #MeToo in my head.

Because of my sports background, I know how to overcome wear and tear and how to temporarily fix injuries on the spot.

I like to believe that there is dignity in everything.

Life is not about competition.

Ideally you want every relationship to work, if it happens it's great, if it doesn't it is unfortunate.

My wife and I, we are both blessed to have our daughter.

Nobody is so busy in life where you can make no time for your child.

I am very fulfilled and complete with a partner like Neha.

Kids are an extension of you and it is important to raise them well.

I was a commitment-phobic person. I never thought that I will settle down.

When it comes to spending the rest of your life with someone, you should do it with a friend. It doesn't matter if that person is illiterate, educated or earns Rs 10 or Rs 10 crore. Eventually, these things don't matter.

When you have a child, the happiness that it will give you cannot be matched by any number of zeroes on a cheque.

One day you are a hero, the next day, media and people put you down if you are not giving your best.

Rumors will always be there. So, good or bad you have to take them in your stride because you are a public figure.

Pink is the color of strength, a color of conviction, a color of decision making.

Janhvi is the most spontaneous artiste and a very respectful person.

'Soorma' was made on a budget of 22 core and we don't expect it to do a 100 crore business, but it has definitely earned respectable numbers. It's a more performance heavy film with a great story and content.

I feel you need a big film to be seen but then, you also need to do something where you get to perform. Only then the industry notices you and gives you more chances with different kind of roles.

In fact, during the postpartum period, many mothers don't feel attached towards her new born. So during such times they are quite sensitive and require special care. Still there are people who don't think twice before making hurtful comments about how a mother looks. I fail to understand what satisfaction they get out of body shaming others.

Those who fat shame, I want to tell them being happy has nothing to do with body weight but how one leads his or her life.

For me, my continuous struggle with every project is, "Is it better than 'Pink?'"

I am constantly hungry for growth and that's what drives me. Success or failure of a project doesn't drive me.

I don't take success seriously. For me, failure is a constant.

If someone comes and tells me I've done great work, that's not what I want to hear. But if someone comes and tells me that this could have been a notch better, I'd spend an hour with the person and hear him or her out.

I have always loved cinema more than the cricket. I don't think there is any harm in taking a different field.

I wanted to be a part of commercial cinema.

It's not that I don't like cricket. I have played first class cricket and represented Delhi in the Ranji Trophy as a spinner, but at the same time my inclination to become an actor was very strong.

When you work with good actors, you feed off each others' energies.

Every artiste has a process.

I wanted to work with Shashank Shah. He is a very clear individual.

Karl Khandalavala was a very handsome and a good-looking man and used to take care of himself. He was an extremely sharply dressed individual.

It's all about timing and I felt the time was right for both Neha and me to start a family... whenever I used to think of settling down, I couldn't think of anyone else but Neha.

I want to work really hard and stay committed to my work so that I can grow as an actor.

I feel after 'Pink' my time has come.

Superstars have so much adulation and love which people get used to, living it up in fast lane.

Weddings are super expensive. It is difficult to make money, but it flows out in weddings. Everybody wants it so elaborate without realizing it. People take loans to impress people. We didn't want to do that.

I would love to do a film of the heartland.

I would love to do a 'Vicky Donor' kind of movie.

I want to work with Diljit Dosanjh again.

I have studied and graduated out of Delhi. I moved to Mumbai after graduation.
