"When I was a kid, I used to go to Juhu beach along with five-six other children to learn riding. The first time I sat on a horse, the horse threw me off... My trainer asked me to immediately go and sit again on the horse and said that if you don't go and sit now, the fear will reside inside you and you will never be able to ride a horse.

That was one of the greatest life lessons you can ever have," the 35-year-old actor said here at the Mid-Day Trophy horse-racing event Sunday.
