Never Take No For Answer, And Try

I Am An Independent Film-maker First And Foremost. I Have Always Cut My Own Cloth.

I Look For The Humanity In People, However Big The Politics Or Oppressive The Situation May Be, Whether It's Subsumed Within A Human Being Or Between Two Human Beings. I Want To Help Us Hold A Mirror To Ourselves.

I Often Begin Movies With Music In My Head; It's A Very Important Dimension To Me. Not Just The Music Itself, But How To Use Music In Film: When And How And Subtlety. I Don't Like To Be Too Sweet In My Stories, And I Like The Abrasive Clang, The Contrasting Of Sounds And Cultures.

We Have To Realize Only In Communication, In Real Knowledge, In Real Reaching Out, Can There Be An Understanding That There's Humanity Everywhere, And That's What I'm Trying To Do.

I Grew Up In A Very Small Town Which Is Remote Even By Indian Standards. I Always Dreamed Of The World.
