I am not born to make dreamy movies.

For me, any kind of thing that has stood for 100 years tells me of the health of that thing. So, cinema completing a hundred years in India just says that it is very healthy.

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.

I am a straight talker. I am not politically correct or diplomatic.

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

Every film has an origin. It is made under certain circumstances, and that is a very important point that should be kept in mind during a review.

I don't know if I'd ever want to show my college life in the films I make. I think I've passed that stage long ago.
