So, while he was exercising, his dad used to say in front of Irani, “Dekho unko actor banna hai. Inko lagta hai body banaane se actor bann jaayenge. Acting ke lie kya kya karna padta hai (He wants to become an actor. He thinks by building his body he can become an actor. One has to do lots of things to become an actor.)”
In the same chat, the Welcome Back actor shared that while Salim Khan is a great man, Salman is also a very good person. According to Adi, the Sikandar actor has worked a lot on himself and he knows his caliber. Hence, he decided to not follow anyone and make his own mark.
