I don’t believe in packing my weekend with a lot of things. I make sure that I dedicate enough time to do things that I enjoy.

If I am not working on a weekend, I will be playing cricket.
I am a member of a cricket club and I always look forward to playing in the league matches of the club. Working out is another favourite pastime. This ensures that I don’t slip into a lazy mode.

I also bring in a lot of variety into my workout and keep changing my routine. I also try my hand out at new techniques.
Sketching was a big part of my life before I entered the film industry. I enjoy replicating images of gods and goddesses. This is a good stress-buster because it helps divert my mind from the otherwise serious issues that I focus on.

I recently turned a scriptwriter. Some of my weekends are also reserved for writing. My hectic schedules leave me with very little time to spend with my parents. Some weekends are also when I take them out.

Two other things that take up a lot of my time are cars and clothes. I am crazy about cars and I keep myself updated on the latest strides made in the automobile industry. I keep my eyes open for new designs and models in the market.

I got the craze for clothes from my father and I’ve lost count of the number of new clothes that I have in my wardrobe. I don’t go shopping and instead get them custom-made from some of my designer friends.

I believe in planning my career and spending time alone gives me enough room to put some thought into my decisions. I don’t make any hasty moves, but take my time before I take an important step.
