\u2018Bollywood has become much more cut-throat\u2019<\/p>\n
Looking back on the early years of Bollywood, he said, \u201cWhen I started, the industry felt like a family. Everyone was together, everyone was helping one another. Now it\u2019s become much more cut-throat, much more competitive. Hollywood is different from here.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/p>\nExplaining what he admires about the film industry in the West, he added, \u201cOver there, everyone is very united. The actors are together, the writers are together. There are industry bodies that support everyone. Even if you look at the Oscars, there\u2019s such a strong sense of togetherness. Whenever an actor goes up to receive an award, there\u2019s no jealousy, you can genuinely see everyone celebrating each other. It\u2019s beautiful.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u2018Like playing gangsters\u2019<\/p>\n
When asked which of his performances remains closest to his heart, he admitted with a laugh that he enjoys playing gangsters the most. However, he said the role that truly left an impact on him was Munna Bhai. \u201cI basically like playing gangsters. But honestly, one role that was truly special for me was Munna Bhai. In fact, that role taught me so much about being a doctor, especially through Munna Bhai MBBS. What I realised while doing that film, and through my own journey with my mother and everything else, is that doctors have so many patients and are so busy that sometimes they forget the human touch.\u201d<\/p>\n
He continued, \u201cAnd that\u2019s so important. It only takes two minutes to hold a patient\u2019s hand and ask, \u2018How are you? I\u2019m there for you.’\u201d Speaking about his approach to acting, Sanjay revealed that he prefers to keep things instinctive rather than relying on elaborate preparation. With a smile, he said, \u201cI don\u2019t really do anything. I just listen to the script, go to the set, and the director tells me how he wants the scene done. I simply do it.\u201d<\/p>\n
