I can't stop being in parades. I just love dancing on floats that move really slowly on the city streets in the early morning.

Being able to improvise is the basis for creating all characters and situations, for everything to do with performing, really. And it's good therapy as well.

My friends tell me that I've calmed down, that I seem more centered. I don't know, I think my inner self was more hollow before, which made me more scattered, and more needy to get laughs.

Here in L.A., there are a lot of dead spots, and you have to drive to find energy, but all of India is so energetic.

I understand what my gift is, which is making people laugh, hopefully. It's more on that level. I don't need to be a leading man, I'm fine with that.

I love traffic. It's fantastic. New York traffic is so relaxing.

In Hollywood, what they last saw you in is what you are. It's hard to break away from that.
