Nowadays, Ashmit Patel is doing some interesting bad characters in some of his recent flicks. He has strong inspiration for doing this. He shares, "It comes from that little bug inside me called the acting bug. I believe that I have the same virus that Johnny Depp has. I love his films and the way he is. He doesn't have to go out of his way to be psychotic or crazy. Even when he's playing the most wonderful, romantic guy there is some craziness about him. That's what I mean by 'on-the-edge' roles - there should be some dimension to the character, which is a little quirky and out of the ordinary."
