Mere case mein toh chaliye, 5-7 saal se ho raha hai, lekin kaiyo ke case me, jo ki bade talented log hai hota hi nahi hai. (You can’t really think about it. In my case, it atleast happened in 5 to 7 years, but unfortunately for some talented actors it does not even happen). So thank your luck and just keep working hard and feel happy that you are getting it. That’s the only feeling I have. Actually, there’s nothing to regret.”
