MI speaks on going into the movie industry.

On whether he has plans to go into acting, the singer said he believes acting is not for everyone. He therefore stated that he would like to work with directors and script writers to shoot a movie. He has a story that he believes everyone would love, he said.

As long as I can feed myself, take care of my family and be happy, I’m a very private person. I never wanted to be the most popular. Getting older as an artiste, you need to start thinking about things that are more important. Though the pressure has been much on me, I’ve never been depressed. It’s okay to try and not get it right. It’s okay not to have the best car or watch. It okay if don’t fly private. Don’t put pressure on yourself. Happiness comes first; every other thing should be secondary

I want to approach it from a production standpoint. I’ve long been a fan of movies but I don’t want to enter as an actor. I want to find talented directors, writers and support them with my skill set. We have an exciting script and it’s going to be a movie that everyone would want to watch.
