I am happy making the films I make and I would like the West to be impressed with what we do from India.

I don’t sit around complaining about the lack of good roles. I will play Raj 85 times and still make him different.

I want people to know that movie stars live a normal, middle-class life.

One thing I teach my children and want everyone to know that even if you happen to be on a pedestal you should have the capacity to turn around and say, 'I don't know'. We are scared to go wrong. Downfall is part of life.

If it could have happened through a film that I was associated with, it would have made be doubly proud. It makes me proud anyway. I am not disappointed.

Whether people like it or not, my marketing thought is if you keep something in front of people for too long, they get used to it.

I am very shy. If I am flying British Airways and the airhostess asks me two questions, and I don't understand her accent - I will go hungry for the entire flight.
