I am not on social media, as I don't feel the need to communicate with the outside world. People who matter to me are just a call away.
-
I signed 'Iss Pyaar Ko Kya Naam Doon' only for a year. But the producer requested me to stay on, as the show had just started to make money. I carried on, and in the process, the character became very popular. When I finally gave up, changing the actor for that character was difficult, so the show ended.
-
I'm an actor, and it is not for me but for the writer to offer the best role to me. For me, essaying that role to the best of my ability is more important.
-
I am such a shy guy.
-
For me, as an actor, the challenge is mostly before the film starts when you have to get into the psychology of the character.
-
I am very far away from being angry. I really don't get angry most of the time. I am a patient person.
-
I am a chilled-out person. But if people call me by my name, I hope they pronounce it right. I get called Baron, sometimes Varun, and my surname is often changed to Sobit.
-
I didn't leave TV for films; I left it due to health issues. I wasn't keeping well, and I was losing weight due to the long working hours.
-
Whenever I don't have anything to do, I play Candy Crush or Scrabble. We actors have time between shots, which we need to kill. And we cannot call friends or family, as you are called at a moment's notice. So you need to do something which you can dispose of immediately when called for a shot.

I spent my childhood in Delhi. I have met my wife here. I spent my life here with my parents and sister. It's been beautiful. But I have very fond memories.
-
You can't change what time has in store for you, as the only constant that I've known is change.
-
Everyone has a different life story. Things happen rapidly for someone, and things move slowly for others.
-
What I have noticed is that no two places in Calcutta are alike. I like the bylanes and the old places. This city has a lot of character.
-
I believe social media gives away a lot to people. I got this impression long time back when my friend was on Twitter, and he got trolled because he posted his opinion about something. He was very upset about it, as he didn't expect that people will reply in such a nasty way.
-
I like to keep my birthday very relaxed.
-
I am very bad at taking compliments. Even in school, when people told me that I look good, I could just manage an awkward thank you and a smile.
-
I was very, very naughty in school.
-
I never went to college. I started working when I was 17.
-
I believe that everyone has a right to have an opinion about things or people, and fortunately, I have been lucky to have heard usually good things about myself. However, I must admit that people can be quite critical about your role also.
-
I am definitely a beach person. In fact, I am so much a beach person that my wife is allergic to beaches now.
-
I have passed on on a lot of roles. I purely and simply do what I like.
-
People approach you for the work they have seen you do. I don't think people see me as a lover boy dancing around, so I haven't received a role of that kind. I'm going to do roles that appeal to me.
-
Birthdays, for me, are not really important. It is just like any other day.
-
Not once in my life have I done theatre. Being on stage is not my thing.
