I was the guy who had been bouncing around the film industry for years, and I'd been lucky if five or 10 people would see my movies, so Captain Jack did a big flip for my career.

I have been in the film industry for 35 years, and everyone, including the spot-boys, will vouch for my character.

I did do a film that I refer to as 'The Unpronounceable' by a guy named Yvan Attal with Charlotte Gainsbourg. I had a bit part in there. That was quite fun, doing scenes in French.

You see, I have many friends in the Hindi film industry.

After an 18-year career, I left the film industry, not wanting to become one of those child-actor cautionary tales.

The film industry is a lovely family and I respect it.
