Jackky Bhagnani

Once you are on the set as an actor, you are detached for three or six months.

I was born in Bollywood, life before Bollywood doesn't exist for me.

All the movies that my father has produced have some or the other connection with me.

Why should I be insecure? That will not help me.

Dad is happy with whatever I do. He says I work hard and he believes in me. A lot of parents don't believe in their children, I don't have that problem.

I will be judged for my good or bad work.

Rangrezz' didn't do well but I was appreciated for my role. People won't blame me for the failure.

If you see our films like 'Coolie No 1,' 'Hero No 1' and 'Biwi No 1,' there is a very good story and there is comedy and drama along with it.

Any son would be happy to offer help to his father in difficult times.

Whenever I would speak up for a cause, at least four-five people would remind me that I couldn't spell Malala right and so had no right to teach.

From running around as an assistant to having the camera following for you is a big step, especially for someone like me who never thought I'd succeed in what I wanted to do.

I'm grateful and thankful that my work as an individual has been accepted.

I'm not the kind of person to dwell on things.

Honestly life before acting has been tough for me and not many people know that because many people feel that my dad is a producer and he's a tycoon and it's been easy for me but that's not the truth.

I'm a dancer in my head.

It is surprising that the age group from around nine to teenagers is the biggest fans of 'FALTU.'

I am not desperate for movies and I feel, I can afford to wait.

There is a lot of art that goes into giving the audience a very engaging and very entertaining time, and we want to do that.

Mass universal film doesn't mean badly written and lazily produced content that rides primarily on the star pull of the cast.

All kinds of audiences enjoying one particular film is actually great. Common audience is telling us something and we must listen.

We need to make good commercial films that resonate with the whole of India.

We as human beings want things to come easily to us. But we know that is not possible and we need to work hard.

If my first film would have done well, no one would have questioned me about being a star kid. Maybe I didn't choose the right film.

If you are a producer's son you are never given that benefit of doubt of being new. I had to be good from my first film.

The female lead in 'Bellbottom' has to be in sync with Akshay Sir's screen persona.

If people feel I am a product of nepotism and my father is a producer, I can't do anything about it. All I can do is work harder.

I work hard and party harder.

I don't think its wrong to party.

Music has become a very important part of any film.

After working for hours, enjoying time with friends is very important.

My bua lives here, so I have fond memories of Delhi as a child. Also, my first movie 'Youngistaan' was shot here.

My all time favourite Delhi street food would be golgappe, chhole bhature and Khan market ke kebabs.

Carbon' is the first official Hindi sci-fi film.

I believe whether my films work or not, the music should work.

If there is a convincing script and role I'll surely be part of it.

For me good and honest work matters.

I don't live in a bubble.

I am a realistic guy.

Akshay sir is truly a producer's actor and it has been a privilege to work with him. He is constantly thinking about everyone and everything.

It wasn't easy to digest that I was the son of Vashu Bhagnani, a man who was giving the whole world work, and I didn't have any myself. It's not the best feeling in the world, but you can't let yourself be affected by it. I could have become bitter, but I didn't.

I am a UP ka boy and it feels wonderful to give back something to the city, even in a small way.

Parents can sometimes become over protective of their children, and that can stop their growth. But the funny part is that when the son grows up to be a father, he will also be the same.

I am a dancer, but not as good as Lauren Gottlieb. She is an outstanding dancer.

I would love to do a film on dance with Remo D'Souza.

I believe there are some stories that need to be told and 'Sarbjit' is definitely one of them.

Malala and the causes she espouses are very close to my heart.

Game' and 'Faltu' belong to different genres and will have different audiences. I wish that both films work.

Music is life, that's why our hearts have beats.

I have before and after pictures of myself in my gym and it says 'family pack' to 'six pack.'

I was an asthmatic patient and I weighed 130 kgs, I was always made fun of, no girl was willing to date me.
