I think if you laugh at your troubles and tell the whole world what went wrong, you can't be frightened by anything.
I speak for Kashmiri pundits because injustice has been done to them, and the political discourse doesn't give them enough importance.
I know that some of the characters I played were trash. But then, I chose to take up those roles, as I enjoyed doing them.
I have played 50 different kinds of fathers and villains. Only mediocre actors play the part the same way.
I have always believed that directing a film is like telling a story. You have to tell it well so that it is appreciated.
I don't think that I will say that we are less talented in Bollywood, but our functioning is different. We cater to a different kind of audience.
I discovered that the world frightens you with your shortcomings, but if you do not worry about it, you are liberated.
Every individual suffers from the fear of failure, but you can change your destiny only when you overcome it.
Drama school, you know, I own an acting school, Actor Prepares.
Being a popular director or actor's son can be frightening in this industry. What if you are not able to make it?

After working with Woody Allen, sharing screen space with De Niro was a dream come true.
I would like congratulate everyone who was a part of 'Life of Pi.'
I approach every role with the same commitment because I'm being paid for it. To not do so would be unethical.
