In the industry, you do need some ethics - if one film does well, then thousands get work and money comes back to the industry. I guess the bottomline is, if there are two versions, then the better one will click.

To make a film and to sell it to the distributors you need a name.

If somebody had started on a remake of French Kiss before I announced my own film, I would have dropped my subject. If someone else starts after me, what am I to do?

By getting into distribution and production, I am actually widening my base.

As far as I know, if you take your time, write a good script and make a good film, then give the audience time, they will accept it.

Earlier, I used to charge territories instead of my fees as an actor, but I realised it was better to keep the two apart. Now, I take my fees in cash, for acting, and keep the distribution thing separate.

I have had 50 drinks in one go!
