The Indian star, 50, said that he does not consider himself to be a Bollywood legend like Amitabh Bachchan, despite spending 31 successful years in the industry.
"Don't compare me with Amitabh Bachchan, please. He is a once in a lifetime legend that Bollywood has got and it would be an injustice to put me on the same pedestal. I am really not trying to be modest. But it’s just the love for my work that keeps me going," Kapoor told IANS.
"I love acting. Money has never excited me to a certain extent. I have been lucky. The gods have been smiling on me. It's not just hardwork, dedication or box office success… it's a combination of all these that has contributed to my success. I’m fortunate that I’m still around.
"Over the last 30 years there never has been a single year when I didn't have job opportunities. I have always decided what I want to do. The choice of films has always been mine. I pray to god that this remains all my life… that I work so hard that only I decide when to hang my boots, rather than people telling me 'We have had enough of you'."
