For me,it is very important to believe in the kind of movies I do. Rang De Basanti made me feel good about Indian cinema. The movie instilled in me,a confidence so strong,that I wanted to be a part of the revolution in Bollywood.

I am edgy, raw, offensive, vulgar, untruthful, but intelligent. My jokes are always realistic. I do not make fun of children or people who cannot fight back. That is my limitation.

When it comes to English stand-up comedy, Indians have only seen the best - Jerry Seinfeld, Bill Cosby and the like. So, when someone claims to be an English stand-up comedian in India, he'd better be very good if he's going to make a life of it.

Women do come up to me after a show, but it's usually to say, 'Yhank you for making us laugh,' and all that.

I fear debt. I don't like being indebted to banks. I have a rule in life that I will get it when I can afford it.

I did theatre in the U.S. because there, content-wise, it's very light. In India, theatre tends to get preachy.

Someday social media might, hopefully in some small measure, wake up to the fact that other people's failures are not your successes.
