00:00On cooking, how would you rate yourself in a 1 to 10 scale?

00:04Please go and ask my wife.

00:05Never look at the watch. I never did that.

00:07The biggest clock was my heart. It was all about satisfaction.

00:25I enjoy. I enjoy cooking.

00:27Since I was a kid, I used to be in the kitchen standing next to my mother.

00:32And my mother would be cooking for me.

00:34We used to come from Wankhede Stadium after practice in the morning.

00:38So, like literally, I used to be starving by the time I got back home.

00:42About 11, 11.30.

00:44At that time, we used to travel by train with big kit bags.

00:46And we used to cover a lot of distance.

00:50After practice, we used to be tired.

00:52And I used to be standing next to my mother in the kitchen.

00:56And then gobbling up whatever was there in front of me.

00:59So, that developed my passion for cooking.

01:03And after I started playing for India, I started cooking more.

01:08I started cooking in the mid-90s.

01:12And after that, I found that helped me relax.

01:17I thought I went into a different world altogether.

01:20You know, sometimes it's nice.

01:21Because sometimes, life is so stressful.

01:25You don't enjoy what you normally enjoy doing.

01:27So, it's important to move away from that.

01:30And do something else.

01:31And cooking was one of those things.

01:33Along with music.

01:34Which kept me engaged.

01:36I really enjoyed it.

01:37That's an interesting one.

01:38On cooking, how would you rate yourself in 1 to 10 scale?

01:42Please go and ask my wife.

01:43She says that the best fish curry that she's had in her life is mine.

01:47Oh, awesome.

01:51Never look at the watch.

01:52I've practiced for three hours.

01:54I need to go back home.

01:56I never did that.

01:58The biggest clock was my heart.

02:01It was all about satisfaction.

02:04The time I felt that, okay, today's day has been a productive one.

02:08Because every morning when you leave home,

02:11I feel every individual should leave with some expectations.

02:17And when you come back home,

02:18you should come back with some experience.

02:20Which can only help you become a better person.

02:23The best version of yourself.

02:25Because when we start in that competition, that rat race,

02:30it doesn't work.

02:30Then you're following someone else's dreams.

02:32It is not your own dream.

02:34It is not what you want to be in life.

02:36That is really important.

02:37When you keep looking,

02:38someone's sitting next to you,

02:40he did this, so I should do something else.

02:42But you forget your own path.

02:44I need to trust my instincts.

02:46And then you have your confidant.

02:49There are limited people.

02:50Literally, I can say,

02:51you can count on one hand.

02:52There are so many people who are actually involved.

02:56So in my life, fortunately, those people were there.

03:00Whom I could, you know, trust and say whatever I had to.

03:04I mean, speak my mind.

03:06And I knew that it was kind of one-way traffic.

03:10They didn't have any expectations.

03:12Just to keep me in a good frame of mind.

03:15And then I go out to bat and do what I'm good at.

03:19What I'm supposed to do.

03:21So that peace of mind.

03:24And to be able to have that clarity,

03:27I needed those people around me.

03:30There are highs and lows.

03:32Don't try and listen to thousands of people.

03:35Trust your people whom you're close to and whom you respect.
