He wrote a post in Hindi and English both on his Instagram account and stated- "Pehle main bohot mota bohot pareshan thaâ¦. No no this is not one of those posts. Just putting it out there that I love every chapter of my life. Those days & even now, I have always been myself at every step of the way. I cherish every bit. I'm a work in progress like anyone & everyone else."
He added, "My mother told me every stage of your life is a journey & you will always be a constant work in progress. I understand the meaning of that now more than ever & I'm loving that I'm working towards bettering myself⦠every damn day."
Recently, the actor also revealed, "The pandemic has made me connect to a new audience base as films have headed to the OTT platforms and I'm happy that they have liked my films. Audiences on OTT platforms are more discerning and if they are finding my films interesting, that's a sign that my choice of scripts are turning out to be right. I definitely want to talk to this audience because it gives me remarkable insight into what India is wanting to watch and it will help me to choose better."
He adds, "Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar (SAPF) is a big success story for me and it has also provided me with a big learning that audiences only want to watch good content. Sardaar Ka Grandson too found its audience on the digital platform. I'm happy entertaining audiences on the digital frontier. The pandemic has made audiences extremely choosy and I'm trying to pick films that have something new to tell and SAPF, Sardaar Ka Grandson. It is an attempt to go on a new journey and discover myself as an actor too."
