Asked how is his approach towards characters in these films, he said, "It depends on the script, the character and how much it demands from me. Like Trapped is a serious film with a demanding script whereas Behen Hogi Teri is a fun film. Once you are done, it is easy to come out from the character of a fun film." About his favourite genre of the two, the 32-year-old said, "I really can't say. Both are equally exciting. As an actor, I love pushing myself." Asked how he feels when people await for a good film from him, he said, "I think this is a big compliment for me that people can vouch for a good film from me. It's a great position to be in."
