'I knew that I had trained myself so well that even if I get a 40-second role, I will be able to make an impact on the audience. I was doing theatre in Delhi, but wasn't earning enough to survive. I came to Mumbai thinking that I would earn some money, whatever is required for basic survival, by acting in television serials and picking up some bit roles in movies, and along with it, continue to do theatre. Agar kuchh bhi nehi mila toh I would put together a theatre group and do street plays. I just wanted to keep acting and keep honing my craft.'
