Responding to this, the actor said, "I have not had any major controversy, but yes, I do not go to any party. Now people do not even invite me, because they have understood why they should be angry and insulted if I do not go, which makes me very happy. Please do not call me, because I like to sleep by 10-10:30 pm and I always wait to wake up early in the morning".
