I think about my films for a long time, maybe years, but I write them in days.

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 think the perspective that small-town directors bring to films is very different.

I think the Internet has changed the world.

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.

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

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.
