It is my first preference to do films with social significance. Art cinema has given me credibility and status as an actor, but commercial cinema has given me a comfortable living.

We have filmmakers who make films with some kind of responsibility and take cinema seriously like Shyam Benegal, Govind Nihalani, Prakash Jha. But now these people also take stars Without stars they cannot work.

Parallel cinema has not made an effort to communicate in a language the other person understands.

I have been in the film industry for 35 years, and everyone, including the spot-boys, will vouch for my character.

In western countries, there are roles written for older actors. Films are made on them, including love stories.

I was very shy and very reserved as a child, very, very introvert.

I prefer working in good cinema, wherever it is. I like subjects that have a universal appeal.
