Talking about how emotional he is connected to every role, the Dangal actor said, "When my films don’t work, I feel sad. Filmmaking is tough, and sometimes things don’t go as planned. In Laal Singh Chaddha, my performance was a bit too high, and it didn’t work as well as Tom Hanks’ version."

He also added that he goes into a depression for a while when his films don't work. He remarked, "When my films fail, I go into a sort of depression for two to three weeks.
