Sometimes I used to think I won’t be able to achieve my goals, I even thought of committing suicide. I couldn’t even return to Kolkata due to some reasons. But my advice is never to think of ending your life without fighting. I am a born fighter and I didn’t know how to lose. And, see where I am now.”
He also speaks about his upcoming film with Sanjay Dutt and Jackie Shroff and said, “I can’t divulge anything about the film right now.

People are already talking about it.”
