I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

Frankly I've never really subscribed to these adjectives tagging me as an 'icon', 'superstar', etc. I've always thought of myself as an actor doing his job to the best of his ability.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

I just lead my life as naturally, as normally as I possibly can. But I can't help it if controversy is hounding me day in and day out. I'm quite amazed sometimes by the way they go about it. I grow a beard and it lands up in the editorial in The Times of India.

Looking

Nov 07, 2020

I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

No new projects at the moment. There are restrictions to how much I can take on. And I need to finish those that I am committed to do before thinking ahead. But I'd rather they take final shape before we talk of them.

Body
|
Nov 07, 2020

The amount of things I have been through and the remarkable ways in which the body has reacted is just phenomenal. No wonder I became religious, because you don't know why something's happening to you and you don't know how you bounced back.

Media

Dearest TV media and vans outside my home, please do not stress and work so hard.

Great

Nov 07, 2020

I sometimes lament the fact that I do not have the benefit of a complete and ailment free body structure.

Know
|
Nov 07, 2020

Mr. Leonardo DiCaprio - he be soo gorgeous, no wonder all the ladies flockin' to him - He be Gatsby.

Believed
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have never been a superstar and never believed in it.

Nov 07, 2020

You don't see Indians in Hollywood films around which a story can revolve. As soon as we have a social presence in your society, I am sure there will be many actors from our part of the world that will be acting in Hollywood films.

Missed
|
Nov 07, 2020

There are many things that I feel I have missed out on.

Her

Age

Group
|
Nov 07, 2020

The select group of people who do make realistic cinema, who do make cinema perhaps a little more acceptable to the Western audience, is a very small percentage.

Dance
|
Nov 07, 2020

Indian actors, because of the format of our stories, need to be good actors, and be able to perform emotional sequences, do a bit of comedy, dance and singing, action, because all of this forms just one film. In many ways I'd say there are greater demands on Indian actors than there are on Hollywood.

Any
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't use any techniques; I'm not trained to be an actor. I just enjoy working in films.

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020

I like to feel the butterflies in the stomach, I like to go home and have a restless night and wonder how I'm going to be able to accomplish this feat, get jittery. That hunger and those butterflies in the stomach are very essential for all creative people.

More
|
Nov 07, 2020

I know I should have never got into politics. And I've learned my lesson. No more politics.

Challenge

Nov 07, 2020

'No' is an entire sentence in itself. No means no, and when somebody says it, you need to stop.

Nov 07, 2020

Because you are women, people will force their thinking on you, their boundaries on you. They will tell you how to dress, how to behave, who you can meet and where you can go. Don't live in the shadows of people's judgement. Make your own choices in the light of your own wisdom.

Emotional
|
Nov 07, 2020

We must have song and dance in our lives; we've had it ever since the inception of cinema in India. Our stories are very social-based, very human-based. We are a very emotional nation.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

There are large numbers of people in India below the poverty line; there are large numbers of people who lead a meager existence. They want to find a little escape from the hardships of life and come and watch something colorful and exciting and musical. Indian cinema provides that.

Moment
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think that it's important that actors keep getting challenged every day. For every creative person, it's a terrible moment when they say they have done all they want to do.

Long
|
Nov 07, 2020

I am insecure about tomorrow. Will I get another job? Will it be appreciated? I will pursue acting for as long as I have a face and body that is acceptable to the people, but I still worry that if I don't do better tomorrow, it will all go away.

Nov 07, 2020

It's frightening to be facing an audience. There is always the fear of what they think of you, what they are saying about you.

Emotions
|
Nov 07, 2020

We play many emotions in our careers, emotions that in real life we would perform just once. For example, my character has died in about 10 films, so you have to keep searching for different ways to do it!

Myself
|
Nov 07, 2020

I like to rate myself as a performer upfront, both in films as well as in television.

Father
|
Nov 07, 2020

My mother came from a very affluent background, very Westernized, while my father was more Eastern. So I've had a very good blend of the East and the West. I guess this has been extremely helpful in making my career and the way I function.

Direction
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't have anything in particular to achieve; I don't want to go any particular direction. I just want to take up the challenges of life as we go along.

Emotional

Cinema
|
Nov 07, 2020

Audiences change because life changes. Countries change geographically, climatically, socially and morally. Many things happen, and cinema, in a sense, reflects what's happening in the world.

Positive
|
Nov 07, 2020

Coming together should be considered something positive for people and communities. When thoughts come together, that can be more positive than an individual thought.

Lucky

Hope
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm very thankful to directors and filmmakers who consider me in their films, and I hope I'm able to do justice to their films.

Cinema
|
Nov 07, 2020

The film industry is large enough and has many successful icons that have taken Indian cinema to shores beyond India. I think that Indian cinema itself needs to be applauded beyond one individual.

Part

What I do on film is part of my profession.

Girl

Moments

As a professional, I cannot afford to be complacent.

Generation
|
Nov 07, 2020

I want to perform and be tested; I want the vibrant energy of the younger generation of directors and actors to rub off on me.

Most
|
Nov 07, 2020

Ram Gopal Varma is a most noteworthy talent and has given us some very valuable iconic films. I enjoy working with him.

Decide
|
Nov 07, 2020

Whether the work that I do shall succeed or achieve critical acclaim is for the audience to decide.

I sometimes feel that I have been born to attract controversy.

Whatever I do becomes controversial.

Culture

Childhood
|
Nov 07, 2020

People ask me why it is that when I portray the 'angry young man' on screen, I really look angry. They reason that it is due to some suppression in my childhood. But, it's just that I can't help it; it's in my genes.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

I guess I've been extremely keen on theatre, on getting on to the stage, taking on different roles, enacting vocations, personalities, people, situations, and I guess that's the interest that has driven me to work in movies.

Father
|
Nov 07, 2020

My father is a poet. He's a literary giant of this country - writes in Hindi - and also quite unique because he has a Ph.D. in English Literature. He taught at Harvard University, which is one of the most prominent universities in the country.

Long
|
Nov 07, 2020

I would rather be an aware citizen, and if an opportunity were to arise where I would have to make a statement, I would happily do that.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

If you represent a fantasy for the people who actually go to the cinema, they grab that and go with it; therefore, for the rest of their lives, they actually identify you with a certain thinking - a certain philosophy. There are many actors who want to pursue that same thought in real life as well, and that's perfectly acceptable.

Know
|
Nov 07, 2020

Game

Having no work would be terrible.

Best

I miss the camera each moment and each day.

Load

Art
|
Nov 07, 2020

Makeup
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's a huge change from when I started in the 1960s, but what is really impressive is that the number of ladies on set, the women working on set is a huge percentage. There used to be no women. It was just the leading lady's mother, perhaps the hairdresser and the makeup person.

I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think every actor would wish there is some challenge that is left. I would consider to be creatively dead if I were to say that I am satisfied now.

New
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think no actor should be ever satisfied because there is always something new to do, something fresh to get challenged by.

Future
|
Nov 07, 2020

Crazy
|
Nov 07, 2020

Kaizad Gustad is quite crazy, and he has weird ideas, and 'Boom' is one such idea. It's a crazy film by a crazy guy. It's almost a satire, a black comedy.

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020

I feel that, particularly because of language, we are handicapped in getting a large world audience. But Hindi cinema has the same ingredients that appeal to the whole world.

Food
|
Nov 07, 2020

Indian films are like our food or our sense of dress or our languages: there's a great variety, and it changes every 100 miles, but there is something in common, a national Indian essence, that binds them all together.

I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

I am not in the least eloquent or fluent with languages. My writing on social media is quite pedestrian. But even if it was near any acceptability, I would not be in a position to pen a script or a book.

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020
