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.

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'm very emotional and possessive about all my films.

Politicians need a film appreciation course.

I guess short films have a bright future... The advantage is budget.

Cinema is much more than heroes and villains.

It was only in the early 1990s - during my student years as an aspiring scientist at Delhi University - that I discovered the world of cinema.
