There's always a perception of you and let's face it, there's always someone who you feel is better than you. And this feeling has got to do a lot with your temperament and the kind of person you're."

Emraan Hashmi's debut film was made by his uncles, Mahesh Bhatt and Mukesh Bhatt. At the same time, his grandmother, Purnima Das Verma, was a famous actress in the 40s and 50s. Despite this, Emraan was shocked when he witnessed industry politics. He explained that it has a lot to do with PR and political leanings. He said:
"I was too young to understand that. I came in when I was 19 years old. I was innocent and immature because I had just come out of college. I realised that it's got to do a lot with PR and people who're political in their stance. Success is made up of a lot of complicated little things. It's not as simple as 'you're a good actor and so you'll get success.' There are a lot of dimensions to it that need to play out."
