Their grammar is fine, shravanmm, but the idiom is 'on his shoulder s '. The meaning of #2 is rather murky.

The first one is natural. I do not understand the meaning of the second one.

Here is the context. There are 2 heroes in the movie. The first hero is the most experienced guy and the second hero is a new actor. The first hero is saying, I just did my role, I didn't have any intention to dominate the first hero in acting.

Thank you.
