"My wife thinks I am generous to a fault. And I am a fool. And I don't know how to handle my money. She thinks I keep giving it away. I think I'm very particular about it, but she says not even from a remote corner. Are you particular about it? I spend what I have."

Interestingly, Madhavan was also questioned whether he carried a wallet along with him unlike his 3 Idiots co-star Aamir Khan, who, apparently walks around without one. “I am never that extreme. Aamir’s stardom allows him to be like that. Whatever he requires, he has people to pay for it. Of course, he would pay them… and it isn’t like he doesn’t pay for it,” said Madhavan, adding, “I think my personality doesn’t allow me to walk around with an entourage. I prefer walking alone. I want that freedom, and the ability to interact with people.”

However, Madhavan also added that he understands the perks of stardom, but believes in tailoring that to suit his persona, and not change himself to fit into perceptions of stardom. “I am not very careful about my spending but I always live within my means so if I desire to have a bigger car or better stuff… but if it doesn’t fit my budget, I will not buy it. I don’t have worldly possessions, that is the reflection of my stardom. But I do have the liberty that this stardom offers me and I enjoy it,” he said.
