Don't let your fears become boxes that enclose you. Open them out, feel them and turn them into the greatest courage you are capable of. I promise you, nothing will go wrong. But if you live by your fears, everything that can possibly go wrong will go wrong and you won't even have done the 'Funky Chicken'.

When people call me God, I say, no, I'm still an angel or saint of acting. I still have a long way to go.

As a person, I am still very middle class. People don’t realise these things. Most of the black suits that I wear are the same. All the designer clothes I have are actually from my films.

Sometimes you need to let people feel important by disliking you. It's their little happiness.

If you don't like something don't do it, and if you're doing something then you better like it. It is as simple as that.

The problem with success is that you lose the capacity to fail and the capacity to surprise people. So, if I'm able to surprise myself every day, I can surprise you as well. If I enjoy someone's work and they offer me their project, I do it. So what's the point of the supposed creativity? If Mona Lisa could be made by anyone, then it wouldn't have been the most beautiful painting in the world. The knowledge that you can fail can make you come first.

Everyone has their own way of expressing happiness.

Cinema in India is like brushing your teeth in the morning. You can't escape it.

As for my destination, I don’t think I ever knew one. I walk, I run in the direction of my dreams. Things change along the way, people change, I change, the world changes, even my dreams change. I don’t have a place to arrive, I just keep doing what I know how to do, the best that I can do it. I’ll probably end up a deluded geriatric in a wheelchair wearing a cape and tights, imagining my own flight out of this world, but of course with a young girl in my arms.

I learnt very early in life that whenever there is a choice between peace of mind and piece of ass, go for the former.

If you ask that question again ma'am, I will have to ask you your age

I don't really have much to prove. I can easily go in a comfort zone, make two films a year, hype them because I've signed them as a star, make them cheap and they will be big hits.

Sometimes, I feel the reason I have become a star beyond my films is that I am politically incorrect.

I am very shy. If I am flying British Airways and the airhostess asks me two questions, and I don't understand her accent - I will go hungry for the entire flight.

Life begins when we decide it's going to begin for us.

The illusion that you could hold to yourself the things you most want and lose the things you least wanted to keep..ıs the struggle of lıfe.

The day my father died seemed longer than my entire childhood. The day I felt my first success seemed fleeting, hour-long, not long enough perhaps. I wondered where it went. Even the cycle of time confounds me. I work till dark, until sunrise on most days and fall asleep as the world awakens to light. My friends call me an owl. I like to think of myself as Batman – the prince of darkness.

I would want my children to grow up and do what they wish to in a field that they choose to step in. They should not have to use the shadow of their father's name. I think that is a bit of a downer for a movie star's children.

I talk to Allah, I pray to him.

I don't like the trappings of stardom. I wear the shoes and the Dolce & Gabbana, because I'm told to. But I'm not trapped by it.

After I began working, I realised there's no end line. I believe that money has nothing to do with your personal success. On the face of it, I'm the biggest capitalist of all. I have all the riches. I'm the living proof of what stardom should be in material terms. But I've never sold my soul. I've not done anything which I didn't want to do. I've not done films for money. I'm not saying this with arrogance but I've never asked for a film.

Whenever I start feeling too arrogant about myself, I always take a trip to the U.S. The immigration guys kick the star out of my stardom.

Togetherness, passion, laughter, faith, trust, and jealousy are the essential ingredients of love

More than an actor, I am a performer... I'm a great believer - honestly so, shamelessly so, vulgarly so - that cinema is for entertainment. If you want to send messages, there's the postal service.

As a matter of fact, I find the Western cinema very fantastic.

I truly believe my job is to make sure people smile.

It is so strange - if anyone takes my name, I have the ability to make them famous.

I am happy making the films I make and I would like the West to be impressed with what we do from India.

Well, Kajol's a lovely lady! She's a pleasure to work with and I really enjoy her company! She has the ability to make someone feel so important...she herself is really cheerful and she makes others around her feel cheerful too. I don't believe I've ever seen her cry...except in front of the camera of course! I believe she has the potential to go so far.She is such an insipiration to everyone around her.....including me!

Success and failure are both part of life. Both are not permanent.

I think love can happen at any age... it has no age.

I would love to have MS Dhoni in KKR.

I personally believe the film turns out better when shot in one short schedule, plus it doesn't stress the actors.

I'm not bisexual, I'm tri-sexual. I try everything

Success is not a good teacher, failure makes you humble.

Well Mandira, I hope not. You see, I started both their careers. And as far as i can remember, I started yours too.

I work like a retailer. I sell my services, take my money and keep it in the bank.

Yes I have made a lot of money and I have a lot of respect, my films have done well, and I know there are loads of loads of people who look up to me and really love me. I really just thought this is like a strange dream. I have never thought this is a success - I don't have a standard.

Stand by what you believe in. People who mind won't matter and people who matter won't mind it

Whenever you're feeling down..And I am not around let the sight of me be the reason you smile

Sometimes a lot of us men think we are doing everything for the woman we love, but there is an aspect of a woman a man doesn't understand.

My parents' loss was compensated by the birth of my son Aryan and daughter Suhana. I believe they're my parents. In comparison to them, I behave childishly. My 13-year-old daughter and 15-year-old son behave like my mother and father. They're not my weakness. I love them a lot and give them a lot. I'll give them so much that by the time they are adults they wouldn't want anything.

It is a dichotomous time where the younger generation is perceived as free. But smoking pot is not being free. Taking drugs is not being free. I feel that being courteous and telling your dad, 'I'm going to have a drink' with your dad saying 'give me one too' is cool. That's being freer, happier and nicer. But having issues and saying that 'I am my own person, I am moving out Mom!' is not. Yes, if your mom tells you to move out then that's being free.

If I talk to a girl, it's assumed that I'm having a scene with her. If I don't, then it's assumed that I'm gay.

Live life to the fullest tomorrow may never be.

I have memories of being in Yale five years ago. It was December and so damn cold that while professing love to my leading lady and singing a Bollywood ditty which went something like this, Kabhie alvida na kehna – my mouth froze itself to death. I say death because as I inched closer to kiss her, mouthing the words kabhi alvida na… my mouth and jaw just locked.

I don't kiss on screen. Period.

Whenever I fail as a father or husband... a toy and a diamond always works.

I do believe that an actor, who is self aware, will never do a film that is not an extension of his personality.

I cannot repay my fans for what they have done for me, they have given me so much love and that love has taken me to the number 1 position where I am today, the only thing I can do for my fans is to never stop workingю

I trust two people, myself and the other is not you, its God

I know it's very idealistic and utopian, but I believe we need to just let everyone not be judged in terms of religion, groups or nations or region.

Whether people like it or not, my marketing thought is if you keep something in front of people for too long, they get used to it.

You never win the silver, you only lose the gold

Study hard. Work hard. Play harder. Don't be bound by rules, don't hurt anybody and never ever live somebody else's dream.

It's okay to be confused. Confusion is the route to all the clarity in the world.

Healing doesn't mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls your life.

Even though I am fantastic looking, I am still quite intelligent.

As an actor you're only supposed to be a lover. I am a romantic hero though I don't like that tag. With all the hardships, problems, illness, goodness, badness, awards and money... an actor will always be a lover. And a lover makes mistakes. You'll be silly, nonsensical and stupid.

The dreams I chased took me on a journey,a journey more rewarding than the goals

So I am hoping my second outing to your wonderful university turns out differently, because it would be highly embarrassing if I said, “Good evening Yaleites” or “Yalers”, or whatever you guys are called, and got stuck at Yaaaaa…. That wouldn’t make for much of a speech.

I don't drink, fight & womanise. I am not a wife beater. I don't do nude covers. I don't have a 12-inch long you know what ... I am quite boring.

One thing I teach my children and want everyone to know that even if you happen to be on a pedestal you should have the capacity to turn around and say, 'I don't know'. We are scared to go wrong. Downfall is part of life.

I want people to know that movie stars live a normal, middle-class life.

If you get bored with the person you married for love, there's something wrong with you - not with that person.

I am like a Rolls- Royce. I can run without an engine, purely on reputation

It is not special to be special, it's special to be ordinary

You can love me or hate me but.. you can’t ignore me
