Aditya Roy Kapur

Over the years I've grown to love the industry, my job, and the profession itself. It's been a journey full of ups and downs. For the first few years, it was a journey of self discovery where I grew to love acting while acting.

When 'Fitoor' didn't work, it affected me a lot. It hurts when a film doesn't do well.

Sure, it can happen that the director sees you in a particular genre, and they like your work in that genre; they tend to think that you can only do well in that genre.

There's nothing like work to take your mind off setbacks.

It's exciting to work with stars, but there is no reason to be nervous because in the initial stages of my career, I have worked with Akshay Kumar, Aishwarya Rai, Salman Khan... I have worked with these stars, so nervousness has gone out my system after that.

I am happy that, post-'Aashiqui 2,' I am getting opportunities to work with big names.

When you work for long, you know things about your craft, but how differently you are going to project it so that it can still look new is what I am constantly trying.

I don't want to do only one film a year; I want to work more.

I'm passionate about my work.
