It is time that India legally respected the rights of LGBT persons. It is very sad that this is not enshrined in Indian law in India so far, but I do believe that soon, we will come on par with respecting the individuality of people with different sexualities.

I also said, men are like curling irons, they never get out of your hair. And they are like government bonds, they take so long to mature.

Love just happens, you know.

The Anglo-Saxon world saw India as an underdeveloped country. The land of snake charmers, the cows on the street, that "ex-colony-backward-nation" kind of viewpoint, very condescending. Europe on the other hand, saw India in a more romantic, mystical, spiritual way, as a place that's a fountain of wisdom.

You are probably right when you say that I could get a role in any producer's film if I just asked.

I could play Arab roles, even German roles, Italian roles because I had that look.

Actors are limited by their appearance and while it has cost me some roles, it has got me some very important roles too.
