I would rather let these films be handled by those who are veterans in this genre and would rather be a part of the movement which is at least attempting to give something new and aims in adding variety to the industry.`

The actor is very much satisfied with the way his career has been shaping up so far, He further concludes `The journey has been very smooth and I am very happy with the way it has happened, but at the same time I haven't moved away from TV. Whenever I get a good offer, I'd be happy to take it up.`
