•  In 2023, he played the role of Dasharatha in the Hindi mythological action film ‘Adipurush.’ In an interview, on being asked about what made him switch from having a regular job to becoming an actor, he said,
  

  I always wanted to act. More than two decades ago, I did some work as an actor but soon enough, I realized that I needed to do something to run my kitchen. Acting is not a regular job. You could be working on a project today and there might not be any work for the next few weeks. When you are younger and have a lot of responsibilities, it gets a little difficult to chase your dreams. I had to choose between acting and a stable profession. I decided to take up a job as I thought it was the right thing for me to do at that point in time. However, I remained abreast of what was happening in the industry. In the year 2018, I decided to give acting a shot. I feel it’s never too late to follow your passion.”
