    It doesn’t matter whose child you are, if you deliver a flop, filmmakers stop taking your calls.

    Abhishek on his journey in Bollywood

    I’ve completed 16 years in the industry and it has been a mix of highs and lows. There has been tremendous learning and I’m still hungry to do a lot more. It’s been a great journey and it makes me happy and proud that I’m a part of this industry.

    Abhishek on his low phase in Bollywood

    The low phase that I went through, I think, was necessary. It teaches you a lot. I believe there is no success without failure. It keeps you grounded and makes you appreciate things.

    Abhishek on being very emotional

    Every actor is very emotional and so am I. I feel it’s important to learn to see the brighter side of life, and possess a sense of humour for that. My sense of humour has saved me many times when I have felt low.

    Definitely! There is no harm in appreciating good work. I believe in supporting and encouraging my peers. I think tinsel ville is going past the cliched catfights and is coming together in support of each other on all platforms.
