1. Conversing In English On Sets:
“Aap Hindi mein film bana rahe ho lekin direcor bhi, assistant bhi, saare English mein baat kar rahe hai. Actor ke samajh mein hi nahi aa raha hai. Seedha seedha bol de na yaar. (You are making a Hindi movie but director, assistants are speaking in English. Actor is not being able to understand anything.)”
2. Quitting OTT Shows:
“It’s become ‘dhanda’ (Hindi for racket) for big production houses and actors. Major film producers in Bollywood have cut lucrative deals with all the big players in the OTT field. Producers get whopping amounts to create unlimited content. When I can’t bear to watch them how can I bear to be in them?”
3. Nepotism Debate
“I don’t think nepotism exists in Bollywood, otherwise, I could not have been in this position today. Good work and talent may take the time to get recognised, but always earns respect.”
