What Bollywood lacks is scripts. A lot of the films are copies of western films.

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

Fat noses have no place in the Hindi film industry. But it is not so in the West - otherwise, Anthony Quinn would have never been an actor.

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.

I am grateful to theatre for making me what I am today. But it's not like theatre is my first love. I am equally attached to cinema, which is, actually, a child of theatre, since it borrows heavily from it.

I don't spend on expensive brands. I don't need foreign holidays.

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