Actor Boman Irani, who plays Nobel Peace Prize recipient Kailash Satyarthi in his forthcoming film "Jhalki", has said that he doesnt believe in doing imitation as an actor.

Asked how he prepared to play role of Kailash Satyarthi, Boman said: "I saw a lot of his videos on YouTube, but I have learnt one thing. While acting, when you focus more on mannerism, body language, or look of the character, you forget what's going inside his heart. So, I feel working on the mannerism and look of a character is like garnishing or decoration. I feel if I don't talk in Kailash (Satyarthi) ji's voice, it is fine but I have to identify his spirit, world view and intentions while playing his character. So, I don't believe in doing imitations, I feel actors should be able to present the character's viewpoint and soul onscreen."
