Salman Khan's superhit 'Bajrangi Bhaijaan' was one of the films in the race to get selected for the Oscars this year, but it lost out to Marathi film 'Court.' When quizzed over the topic, the superstar said, “We made the film for our audiences here.. people of Asia. People have liked the film in India, Pakistan and now in China. I don't make films for awards.”

It is painful and it looks like we are having fun but we are not. My job as an actor is to put myself in trouble, to go against everything. So, when the people go to theatres they should have fun. My job ends there. After that what goes where doesn't matter.. It doesn't interest me. After that what (film) goes where doesn't matter... It doesn't interest me.”

Talking about the new season of the reality show, he said, “I feel one should not go overboard. There has to be a limit to everything. My mother fails to understand why people all of a sudden fight in the house and then there are times when nothing happens. Educated people, celebrities who earn in millions behave like this. Some do it to stay, some are correct, some are wrong. My only concern is when they come out of the house, they should be okay. They come to me, I guide them,” he said.
