As a matter of fact, the star himself admits that his late latif ways had nearly ruined his career. And that's why he is starting afresh. "I won't make the same mistakes I did earlier," the once No 1 Hero says from Chennai.

Additionaly, the actor is also religiously working out to lose some of his extra weight. "Poor guy, he can't run much, but he's the first one to come to the gym in the morning and he walks for half an hour on the treadmill," says the trainer of the hotel where he is staying.

Here's hoping he can keep walking toward success, in his career and weight goals!
