“I want all the good actors to be my successors. If you ask me to name an actor in Tamil, I will never do that. But in the neighbouring state of Kerala, Fahadh Faasil is my favourite. In Hindi, Nawazuddin Siddiqui who used to work as my assistant in ‘Hey Ram’ is quite impressive and then there is this young actor Shashank Arora, who got the facial features similar to Nagesh, is doing a commendable job,” he was quoted as saying.
Apart from movies, he also spoke about politics and socio-economic problems that the country is currently going through.
