All the conscious decisions that I have taken in my life have never borne fruit. Not even come close! So, I am just very happy not planning.

Usually, you lose interest in a story beyond a certain point. But with Highway, there was something very subtle, yet something very influential. I intended Highway to be the first film that I ever made. Didnt happen.

'Love Aaj Kal' is not really a road movie, but it does involve some travel.

I myself got married at a very young age. It has always intrigued me because marriage is very synthetic in an otherwise natural world.

My father did irrigation jobs, and I would sometimes accompany him, and that gave me a taste of what was going on in the innards of India.

I have never seen a film being as influenced by the incidents during its making as Highway. The adventures of our north Indian road journey has many stories to tell.

I come from a middle class background. I have travelled a lot by trains and have lived in the world. It is a world I cannot get away from; I would not even want to.
