Home | Movies Suniel Shetty says:

Action does work for me in a big way because that's the kind of image I have. But I believe that if I work with quality directors on quality subjects, they all will click. (On doing action films)      The problem is that I have never been able to stay on a high for a very long time. The law of averages has always caught up with me. (On the success-failure ratio)

Though I am smart, I am also a man of commitment. I signed on 45 films the day I came into the industry. I could have taken on better films and walked out of the bad ones, but I would be harming the producers who were depending on me. Today, I'm at a stage where I can say no, I can say, 'Mr X you are a very nice man, but I simply can't do business with you any more.' (On his career moves)      From being labeled a doorknob to winning an award, I think I've come a long, long way. (On winning an award for Dhadkan)

Industry folk say:

He's one of the most obedient actors. The best thing about him is that he doesn't believe that he is a great actor. So it's that much easier to mould him. (Filmmaker Priyadarshan, who worked with Shetty in Hera Pheri and Yeh Teraa Ghar Yeh Meraa Ghar)      I felt that he is a good actor who has not been given an opportunity or a script to show his talent. As a performer you do need a script. (Filmmaker Gulzar on his Hu Tu Tu hero)

Suniel is a terrific actor and he surprised me. I think he has great potential and it needs to be tapped. (Director Ram Gopal Varma on working with Shetty in Jungle)      I think Suniel is a very fine actor, very hardworking, sincere and professional. These qualities are required by an actor and Suniel has them all plus his presence on the screen is impressive. Suniel is very honest and dedicated to his work. (J P Dutta on his Border and Refugee star)
