"You don’t have to abandon your own passion with the aim that you can shine in that of others. It’s my job that demands that I am a celebrity; it doesn’t make me change from being who I am. I am interested in my job, as well doing it very well. That is why it is widely accepted. So, anybody can be great in his chosen profession if he loves and takes it seriously. The popular belief that whoever is seen on the screen is in money is not correct. People should not forget that it is a world of make-believe; it is an illusion."
