"Jodhaa Akbar celebrating 100 days gives me limitless joy! As an actor, I look for appreciation from the audiences, and I wish that they like the film. There's always an anxiousness when you shoot for a movie. There are thousand questions in your mind. You wonder, will they throw tomatoes at me when they see this scene? Am I doing it ok? "In doing a historical like Jodhaa Akbar , we have to take little more care. There were times when we asked Ashu (Ashutosh Gowariker) if we should be doing a particular thing some other way, but he was so sure about what he wanted. It's difficult when you take up a larger than life theme, you have to be careful not to over do it. "Aishwarya is a lovely co-actor. People liked us together in Dhoom 2 , and now in Jodhaa... Let's hope we get more movies to do together. It's easy when you know the actors working alongside you. It makes the ambience less formal, more friendly, and that helps. "Right now, I look forward to Kites. It's being directed by Anurag Basu, and produced by dad. I like to get involved in my films at different levels, and it's going to be no different with Kites. Let's hope this film too goes on to celebrate a 100-day success, and in the meantime Jodhaa... looks at toasting to 200!"
