I like working on big budget films.

I absolutely love London; it is one of my favourite cities in the world.

I wouldn't want to do a Bollywood film per se, but I would like to do an Indian-language film. For some reason I think Bollywood has become synonymous with commercial cinema, which is song and dance and everything that is larger than life, and I am interested in the reality.

I always imagined that I would learn something each time that I would take to a new project, then I realized that each new project poses a completely different challenge.

I feel like the history between Israel and Palestine has a lot in common with the history between India and Pakistan.

I am very direct, to the point that I think I might make people uncomfortable! I do not know how not to be direct. I don't think there's time to waste.

Everything big-budget or stereotypical I was offered after 'Slumdog Millionaire' was a huge no-no.
