- [In 1994, recalling his most famous film] Julie (1975) was the biggest blunder of my life. Sure, it was a super hit, but for a hit like that, you must have a super role. Mine was the wrong role. Before this film, I had action films on one side and romantic ones on the other. I was just establishing an image. At that time, the Julie role shouldn't have happened because it was bad. The hero was suppressed in the entire film and it was totally heroine- oriented. My mistake entirely. If I hadn't done this film, I would have slowly come into my own position. After Julie was released, I had a lot of problems. I was dropped from many films. But even one wrong move for an actor is enough. Even today, I repent doing that film. Because even if it's a small role, you must look like a hero. I wasn't even in the climax.
