“I like Meryl Streep and Jodie Foster. Among Indian actress, I prefer M...” — Urmila Matondkar Quote

I like Meryl Streep and Jodie Foster. Among Indian actress, I prefer Madhubala and Nutan.

I've always been proud of being a Marathi mulgi, but just because I don't keep harping about it doesn't mean I do not bother about my Marathi people.

A man who does not approach me because of my screen image or is intimidated by me is probably not being worth approached by.

I have stuck my neck out to stand with a party whose ideologies are closest to mine.

I've always been selective about my roles.

As I showed the world my art, my heart, I wasn't just an actress. I was actually an artist. And that was my transformation.

I've seen beautiful actresses get spat at or just someone trying to get a rise out of them so they can get an extra hundred bucks for a photo. It's really rough.

I don't know how an actress is supposed to observe and create new stuff if she hasn't been on the streets, brushing up against humanity. You have to have a life.

I don't see myself as having to compete with younger actresses; I don't feel that.

As an actress, I'm constantly watching different shows and films and am always gathering information and inspiration for characters and techniques to make my performances the best they can be.
