In a podcast with Raj Shamani, the actor reminisced about coming from extreme poverty. He admitted that he had experienced the depravity of being penniless and was “disgusted” by it.
Recalling his childhood, the ‘Luck’ actor shared that he and his family lived in a room so tiny that they had to sleep on top of each other. He also revealed that they had to face humiliation for their poverty, and he was gradually fed up with their daily ordeal.
“I have seen a lot of poverty. I saw so much poverty that I was disgusted by it. I grew up seeing as many as 12 people (his family) eating the same khichdi that contained only a little bit of rice and so much water. We all slept in a 10×12 room, sometimes even on top of each other. Even the toilet was situated outside the house. I was extremely poor and was fed up with poverty as well as the taunts. I did not want to hear my father being ridiculed anymore,” he told Shamani.
The actor also shared fitness tips for those who find the gym too expensive.
