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.

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

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

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

I don't expect anything from anybody. When you grow old Your days are gone; it is part of life.

I have no regrets at all. I have done quite well for myself. I didn't have a conventional face, but I have done well, and I am proud of it.
