I can't think of a more pathetic situation for an actor than to do a film and not connect to it. And I pray to God that I never face that situation.

What happens with every role, you have to trick yourself, you have to creatively find ways to explore the mental state of your character.

The sign of a good society is where talent is respected.

I cannot live anywhere else except India.

I want to entertain people, but with some substance.

Parsi theater was known for melodrama.

A nation needs to know how to utilise talent.

Language does not make one an elite.

If you guide others out of the dark, you are a star, even if no one knows your name.

Sometimes you don't want better but just what is YOURS..

I've learned survival secrets from being on camera, and then translated them into everyday life.

My drawings have to be quick. If they don't happen in 20 minutes or a half hour, then they're no good.

Absolutely, 'Rabbit Hole' gave me a nice first introduction into film acting.

Let all beings in all the worlds be happy. Include this universal prayer in your prayers every day. This is my birthday message to you.

There seems to be something in humanity which will not bow meekly to the insolence of power.
