Now looking forward for the release of Anurag Kashyap's Gangs of Wasseypur II as the main protagonist, says he wants to become the highest paid actor in the industry. He says, "I want to be the highest paid actor in the industry. I don't understand why good actors don't get paid well. Actors should get paid according to their talent but they would hardly earn the money which would easily come to some people because of their background”.

The actor, who has eight lines up project including Aamir Khan's Talaash, and Bipasha Basu starrer supernatural thriller Aatma, had a tough time in the industry. He raved, "I have seen it all in the industry. There were days when I wanted to quit but did not know anything other than acting so I stayed. The struggle was long but there were good people around me like Aamir and Anurag, who believed in me and told me to stick around”.
