00:00I won't be a good actor anymore and people will not like my work.
00:02That's an insurance.
00:03Getting into Ranbir Kapoor's phone would be very helpful.
00:05You know I'm very intelligent, I don't even know if somebody's calling you,
00:07I just flash his battery low.
00:08You write battery low calling?
00:10I'm joking.
00:30When a film doesn't match up to expectations, how does it feel?
00:37You know, fortunately or unfortunately for me, I'm quite detached.
00:41Where success or failure is concerned.
00:43I love working.
00:44I love being on a film set.
00:45I love being part of a movie and acting.
00:48That's the process I enjoy.
00:50When it comes to the release of the film, yes, of course, you know,
00:53you've spent so much of your hard work and time on a film, so it matters.
00:56But I don't get affected by success or failure.
00:58As long as my work is good, as long as I'm honest to my work, I think that's what matters.
01:02So beyond and above a point, it doesn't really bother you and make you lose any sleep?
01:07No.
01:07So actors are so insecure about their work, you know, they want their work to speak,
01:11you know, especially...
01:11Are you insecure about how you're placed in the industry?
01:14Of course, but my insecurity is not because if somebody is,
01:17you know, better than me or somebody is ahead of me.
01:20My insecurity is just that I feel that I'll not have a film tomorrow and,
01:22you know, I won't be a good actor anymore and people will not like my work.
01:25That's an insecurity I think every actor has.
01:27You have to have that burning fire inside your bed.
01:29If you don't, then it's gone.
01:31Are you competitive?
01:32I am very competitive.
01:33Does somebody else's opening weekend bother you?
01:36Not opening weekend, but I remember when Jani Tu had released and Imran had,
01:41you know, come up with his debut film.
01:43I was, I remember I was shooting in Ooty that time for Hajjapuri Ki Ghazapkani and,
01:47you know, post the premiere, people were going gaga about this film and about this boy.
01:51And I was very eager and I was kind of jealous also.
01:53I was like, what's, you know...
01:54But there was that ambition that came in and maybe some envy as well.
01:57Yeah, absolutely.
01:58Which is a good thing.
01:58It's a good thing.
01:59Getting into Ranbir Kapoor's phone would be very...
02:01I'm very intelligent.
02:02What I do is, all my guy friends, I name all, like the girls, by their names.
02:08As in, sorry, explain.
02:09As in, like, somebody would be Imran, somebody would be Karan,
02:12somebody would be somebody else.
02:14Oh, so when Karan calling on Imran, flashing on Ayaan, flashing on...
02:17What's better is, what you can also call them is battery low.
02:21So, in the middle of the night, somebody's calling you,
02:22it just flashes battery low.
02:25Because the battery's low.
02:26You write battery low calling?
02:27I'm joking.
02:31Then what?
02:32That's not a joke.
02:33That is unlikely done.
02:34Okay, this is interesting.
02:35Situationally, has it happened that you've been with one?
02:37We won't mention names.
02:38You've been with somebody and the phone has flashed with another name.
02:41Has that happened?
02:42Yes, it has.
02:43And what has flashed?
02:44A director's name?
02:45No, battery low.
02:46No, battery low.
02:49And this story has been bought?
02:51By?
02:52By whoever you were with?
02:53Absolutely.
02:56Wow.
02:57I'm...
03:00This is not cool.
03:01This is not cool.
03:02This is not a great thing.
03:06So, are you learning, Imran?
03:07This is a brilliant one, dude.
03:08This is fantastic.
03:10I feel so ashamed right now.
03:11You are not ashamed at all.
03:12You know, you should not have said this on TV.
03:15You know, you should not have said this on TV.
