In an interview with PTI, the actor said, "I want to own this space. I started like that and I have that in me as an actor. I would love to act in such subjects (like of a sperm donor, erectile dysfunction). It is important to have your own space as an actor," he said.
"At the same time, I have to shift gears like I am doing a thriller film with Sriram Raghavan, it is an exciting genre for me. I am happy in this kind of space and I will continue to choose films that are interesting," he added.
The new year too looks promising for the actor with films such as "Badhai Ho", "Manmarziyaan" and a film with Raghavan tentatively titled "Shoot The Piano Player".
"You need to see how interesting, engaging and novel a script is before saying 'yes' or 'no'. There are different medium available today to tell stories... In terms of films, you need to show the audience something that they have never experienced before," he added.
