I feel really blessed when people start comparing me with Sachin, but I keep myself focused on my performance and not on such comparisons. I literally worship him, so I don’t see too much in this comparison. No cricketer has been able to score one hundred centuries like Sachin.
Honestly, one of the reasons I wanted to do a comedy next was that I just kept thinking, ‘I don’t want to chase the next ‘Breaking Bad,’ because honestly, there may never be one.’ I couldn’t imagine any other drama comparing. And I just wanted to laugh.
In some ways, I think ‘Pulp Fiction’ hurt cinema in a very, very minor, small way. It did a massive amount of good. But it also made it impossible to make a movie even remotely like it without someone comparing it to ‘Pulp Fiction.’

But I don’t go around comparing and contrasting myself with other actors if I can help it. It’s also, I think, the key to my success.
I’m at peace with myself and where I am. In the past, I was always looking to see how everybody else was doing. I wasn’t competitive, I was comparative. I just wanted to be where everybody else was. Now I’ve gotten to an age when I am not comparing anymore.

I’m not comparing myself to Bobby Kennedy by any stretch, but he was opposed by the liberal establishment, too. Eleanor Roosevelt was the biggest opponent to him running.
You look at anything, and you’re like, ‘Is this as good as ‘Breaking Bad?” It took a while for me to stop comparing every project that comes my way to that. That’s one of the reasons I wanted to do ‘Life in Pieces.’ I just want something that’s a 180. I just wanna do something completely different.
