When asked if he would like to appear on Koffee With Karan, the actor said in Hindi, "Not now. I don't think they will invite me now. I'll have to achieve a lot for that, Rs 150 crore or Rs 200 crore movies. They won't call me on this level. You need good work or a big name to appear on Koffee With Karan."
