What is really important to me is a sense of humour and a mischief about life. Life is just too boring otherwise.

Every frame and every scene has to have an intention.

It took me three years to learn to dress in the American way, especially in winter. That was just like me. I barely wear socks even now.

I want to question what the outside is and who defines it. I often find those that are considered to be on the outside extremely inspiring.

Americans are not used to being bombed in their beds, but if you come from anywhere outside America, it's not highly unusual.

Creative freedom is an imperative for me, but it doesn't really exist in a Hollywood game.

Marriage of attraction is a gamble anyway, so you might as well marry into a family that is similar to your own, and make that much less of an adjustment. But the 'love marriage', as it is called, is equally common in India now. But it would be interesting to do a comparison of what would work better. Marriage is hard work, and it is a gamble.
