In an interview with Bollywood Life , he said: "I am really overwhelmed. You know when I go out to watch a movie or just hang around with friends, people walk up to me, especially kids, with requests to click a picture or just asking for an autograph.

"For me that's the best feeling in the world when a child comes up and compliments you. Mostly because kids are the most honest judges you can ever have. They tell you things just the way it is. So yes, I love it."


The actor, who is trained in martial arts and is a fitness fanatic, has been compared with Salman Khan for his honed physique.


He denied suggestions that he is attempting to emulate Khan in any way.


"No, I am not trying to be the next Salman Khan, though it's a big compliment to be compared with the legend himself.

"Also I don't want to be known just for my body and would like to be appreciated for my acting skills since I am here to be an actor," he explained.

"I consider my physique to be a plus point. If fans ask me to show my body I can't say no to them.


"I have invested a lot of hard work to build this body, so I believe there is no harm in showing the hard work."


Directed by Sabbir Khan and starring Kriti Sanon, the action drama is released today (May 23).
