00:00I think 30 is a big milestone and first of all I would like to wish Bombay Times
00:06I think it's one of the leading publications and Bombay Times has entertained people through its newspaper
00:15What's happening in Bollywood, all the news has reached people
00:20I think it's a fab, fab thing that they've completed 30 years now
00:25And I've been associated with them for the longest time
00:28So I'm very happy that I've been able to be a part of this celebration
00:33And I think another 30 to go
00:35I think people watch the shows that we do
00:41But as a person, what are we?
00:44And a lot of news that can't reach people through our work
00:49So people know us as people, they love us as people, it's because of media
00:53These days there's spotting, earlier there was no spotting
00:57Actually there used to be articles and interviews
01:01Now social media is another new platform
01:05So I think media plays a very important role in the success of an actor
01:23Bombay Times is 30 years old and I've been associated with Bombay Times for 15 years
01:37I remember when I started my journey in this industry
01:42My first article came out and Bombay Times announced that I'm joining this project
01:47So it's a very long journey, we have a very old relationship with Bombay Times
01:53Bombay Times has covered all the good and bad news related to our lives
02:01And of course, we have connected to the industry also with Bombay Times
02:05So I have a very emotional relationship with Bombay Times
02:08So I really really wish that this is just the beginning
02:10And of course, many years are yet to come for Bombay Times
02:14My relationship with Bombay Times, which is 15 years old, I hope this becomes 30 and 45
02:21It's very important, because we work for the audience
02:26We work so that the audience likes our work, accepts us, appreciates us
02:31And many times, our personality, our image reaches out to the media
02:39So we are as much needed by the media as they are
02:42The change is that earlier, there were fewer publications through the media
02:49There were few newspapers, few news channels
02:52Now there are many digital portals, many such portals
02:57So it has become wider, the reach is wider
03:02Now everything is important, it's more democratic now, even in media
03:08I remember when I used to host in Dancing Girls Room
03:14Everyone used to think that now you are hosting, you will just remain as a host
03:18Now you will never be able to act
03:20Then that also happened
03:22When I started with this film
03:26Then the media told me that you have started with a small role
03:30It's possible that you won't be able to do much with this
03:33So in every phase of life, there are questions and insecurities
03:38But I feel that there is no definition, no rule
03:42And nothing happens that this is the way to move forward
03:46You never know, life is full of surprises
