While speaking with Sunday Scoop, he said as an actor, one must be ready to do anything to play unbelievable roles.
He stated,
“I have been presented with scripts where I had to slap my father on set and I must do it as an actor. He has slapped me on set too countless times. The moment we are acting, I don’t see him as my father anymore; I see him as a colleague and we need to interpret our roles very well. He trained me and he is my boss in the industry.”
