Sunny Deol, whose latest film Bhaiaji Superhit hit the screens on Friday, in an interview to news agency PTI said that he is "very instinctive" when it comes to choosing his films and has "never read the script" of a film before signing it. "I am a very instinctive person. I hear an idea, a thought and if it is good and I like it, I just jump for it. I don't go into the detailing of it. Right now, you need to do that but back then filmmaking was different. I never read scripts," PTI quoted Sunny Deol as saying. The 62-year-old actor added that he hears the "idea" of a film from the director and then he decides whether he wants to do it. "I just hear the idea from the director and go for it. I have always interacted with the story writer and heard the subject because that's what is going to eventually come over on screen," said the actor.

"I don't think I have ever worked with the attitude that 'This is easy I can do it.' Hats off to those who say and do it. For me, I need to enjoy it. You can't be nervous while performing a scene because then you wouldn't be able to," Sunny Deol added.
