My Films, No One Else Will Do.

We Have Three Generations At Home, Including My Father-in-law. I Keep A Very Low Profile, And A Lot Of Things I Do Are Very Much With The Family In Mind. I Have Actually Made Films With The Family Around Me.

I Am Still Attracted To Stories About People Who Are Considered To Be On The Outside Of Society. I Still Seek Inspiration From Those Stories.

Marriage Of Attraction Is A Gamble Anyway, So You Might As Well Marry Into A Family That Is Similar To Your Own, And Make That Much Less Of An Adjustment. But The 'love Marriage', As It Is Called, Is Equally Common In India Now. But It Would Be Interesting To Do A Comparison Of What Would Work Better. Marriage Is Hard Work, And It Is A Gamble.

Never Treat Anything You Do As A Stepping Stone. Do It Fully, And Follow It Completely.

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.
