00:00I have learnt a lot from her. A lot.
00:03I don't know, like, I look at things in a very different way, earlier I used to look and now I look at it in a very different way.
00:09Tell me some few things that you can't handle about her.
00:11I have to handle everything.
00:13I have managed everything, everything, slowly slowly.
00:17But she does, she has brought all the luck I have.
00:21There was a pros and cons of marrying him also.
00:23So I had all the advantages on one side and all the disadvantages.
00:27Akshay, who has been through this amazing journey, you know, from actually being now considered such a brilliant actor and doing so many different films.
00:35I am ready to give her the credit because she came in my life and everything changed.
00:39That's also what she keeps on telling me.
00:41Do you think she changed your sensibility as an actor?
00:43A lot of things she has changed.
00:45Like your approach to mainstream cinema?
00:47More and more other things also.
00:50Like what?
00:51Like what now, I can't get into it.
00:54Like I told him I won't have a second child if he doesn't start doing sensible movies.
00:58Oh God, she held that in.
01:00I can't even tell you what I have to go through every day.
01:04You have an idea, you know her very well.
01:07I do have an idea but you actually started changing your cinema because you wanted a second child.
01:11I cannot tell you what I go through.
01:15Tell me some few things that you can't handle about her.
01:18I have to handle everything.
01:20I have managed everything, everything, slowly, slowly.
01:23But she does, she has brought all the luck I have.
01:26It's because of her and I say, just not saying it, just...
01:33Are you really? Yes, you have something to say.
01:36When I met him, he had 14 flops in a row.
01:3914, I counted.
01:4114 flops you never gave him.
01:43Yeah, so I had this chart.
01:45That was one chart, the genetic chart.
01:47And this chart I found after my marriage on the second date.
01:51That's not true.
01:53No, you found another chart, there was a pros and cons of marrying him also.
01:56So I had all the advantages on one side and all the disadvantages.
01:59What were the disadvantages?
02:01There were two and they pretty much stayed the same.
02:03And there were eight advantages which have stayed the same.
02:05I have learnt a lot from her, a lot.
02:07I don't know, like I look at things in a very different way.
02:11Earlier I used to look and now I look at it in a very different way.
02:14But you know, at heart, Akshay, you seem like this simple,
02:17like focus, tunnel vision for career, focus on work.
02:21And then you have this storm in your house.
02:23That was one of the points also in this thing, yeah.
02:26She found you...
02:28Focus, will work, will bring money home.
02:32Point number one was well settled.
02:34That was in the pros, well settled.
02:36And then...
02:37I forgot the cons.
02:38There were two.
02:39Which are?
02:40Which I am not saying, but they are there.
02:42I don't know why I feel like I am in a couple's counseling session
02:45where I have the most sorted out couple
02:47in the face of this country sitting across me.
