I did not have any kind of addiction to the film industry. The drug abuse had already started.”

But there comes a time when you have to work towards getting it right and that's what I've done for many years. My fiancee Priya is playing a very important role in my life. She is helping me improve. We are moving forward in life together, although he does not need any improvement, because he is absolutely perfect! That's life, you have to keep moving forward all the time.”
