We All Know The Power Of Film;

It Gave Me A Lot Of Pleasure And Pride That 90 Percent Of The Crew For 'monsoon Wedding,' And Most Of My Film, Are Women. We Get The Work Done, You Know, Much Lesser Play Of Ego... And I Really Believe In Harmony, I Believe In Working In A Spirit Of Egolessness And That The Film Is Bigger Than All Of Us.

Christmas Lights May Be The Loneliest Thing For Me, Especially If You Mix Them Up With Reindeers And Sleighs. I Feel Alone. I Feel Isolated. I Feel I Do Not Belong.

You've Got To Understand That In Bollywood, Every Actor Is An Instrument, And Yet A Human Being. They Come To The Set With A Set Agenda, Believing, 'this Is Who I Am, This Is What I Want, And No, I Am Not Going To Become That Character You Want Me To.'

Making Films Is About Having Absolute And Foolish Confidence; The Challenge For All Of Us Is To Have The Heart Of A Poet And The Skin Of An Elephant.

What Is Really Important To Me Is A Sense Of Humour And A Mischief About Life. Life Is Just Too Boring Otherwise.
