'Bombay Velvet' is my first film in a trilogy about Bombay, before it became a metropolis.

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 West sometimes doesn't understand Bollywood, but they can definitely understand how Bollywood influences people.

Cinema is an art form.

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