- He described the 2000s–2010s as a period of few releases, extended time at home, and feeling he had "given up" once.

- He said party invitations and attention dwindled during the slump but the same people now approach him with offers, as he returns to the mainstream with Aryan Khan’s The Ba***ds of Bollywood.
