I love Back Stage. I have lots of theater friends and actors who depend on Back Stage.

The quality of mainstream cinema has changed. A lot of independent voices feel they can leave everything behind and make independent films.

Films are like oxygen for me.

I'm a huge Coppola fan. But more of 'Apocalypse Now' and 'The Conversation.' 'The Godfather' for me is, like, number three or four on the list.

The censor boards are mere redundant forces conspiring to keep the 'bold' films out of reach of the audience.

I do not make movies to send any message, but my treatment makes my viewers think on the subject.

Conventional Indian cinema is about people falling in love. They sing, they dance.
