In a Facebook video of a TV channel, the actor talked about the matter. "We were taught—and I've faced this myself—that you shouldn't talk about your personal matters. Don't tell the people about your relationship too early on, otherwise girls won't like you. The audience won't gravitate towards you. I referred to this and shared how I do not follow that kind of so-called heroism. I am not the type of hero who doesn't talk about marriage or their wife," said Nisho.
The actor also added, "I don't want to be a hero who can't get close to people. Like I'm going to the hall. Many people may think that this is not the work of a hero. Now that I have come to the big screen, I have gone to people and heard about their pain. Because my performances come from my observations. That's my philosophy. I actually made my point. I'm not that hero. I am an actor. There has never been pressure related to age, wife and children. If I receive fewer projects because of that, then it's fine. So, I'm talking about the philosophy that people had about actors and heroes a long time back. But I am an actor of this generation. I don't want to maintain that philosophy."
