<span class=normal>Then and Now:<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>What I have learnt and would want to carry with me from my dad and the people from his era is the confidence they had. They werent the best of lookers. They werent having toned physique; they werent taking their shirts off, etc. Just by being yourself and projecting your personality is all that matters. Thats what impresses me about the yesteryear era. From todays era, looking stunning, grooming, staying fit and slim is what is essential to survive. I prefer actors like Konkana Sen Sharma and Chitrangada Singh who bring something different. They are my personal favourite choice. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>The K word - Khamosh:<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>My dad uses the K word all the time. In general conversations too he will put it. If you can manage to pull off something like that, you are bound to be the one piece original. Shatrughan Sinha does not imitate anyone, yet the whole wide world imitates him. He has come up from nowhere. From being a nothing in Patna, Bihar, to doing films and then becoming the first Cabinet Minister from Bollywood is a big leap for a man of his stature. <BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>Shatrughan Sinhas sense of humour:<BR><BR><br><p class=clear>&nbsp;</p>We all have read about his sense of humour in Filmfare. My favourite answer of his is when someone questions him - Are you happily married? To which he answers - I am married and my wife is happy. My father has a scar next to his lips and I remember him telling me that he will never change anything about himself. I too have a scar on my eye brow and that for me is my trademark. I would not want to change it for anything. </span>
