"I don't think anything works better than heroism. If you have heroism in a film, it works. Heroism doesn't mean you're romancing a girl or... It means doing something for someone against all odds and you make that happen. action doesn't make sense till time you don't have emotions backing it. 

"It doesn't matter you jump, punch, kick or numbers of fighters you fight if its emotions aren't set in right place. action is meaningless," he added. "Dabangg 3" is scheduled to release on December 20.
