Suniel Shetty has seen ups and downs in his showbiz career. He says failure has taught him a lot. "When I started my career as an actor, I had no guidance from anyone. I have learnt everything from my failures. I was very happy when my first movie was successful. That success paired with my trained body allowed me to believe and dream that I would be the next Amitabh Bachchan in the industry. Unfortunately, it remained a distant dream," said Suniel, who made his Bollywood debut with the 1992 movie Balwaan.

"Moreover, I received a lot of criticism from people who told me that I cannot act and should go back to being a hotelier. I am glad that I took their criticism positively, moved past that and focused on what the audience wanted me to do," he added.
