“So, 50 films, 3 National Awards, 74 plays and serials later, here I am...” — Pankaj Kapur Quote

“So, 50 films, 3 National Awards, 74 plays and serials later, here I am playing Professor Das in JL50,' who understands time travel. When in reality, I'm not tech savvy at all.”

“Our cinema is coming of age, and people are realizing we need to tell different stories differently and in fresh manner and not just do formula stuff and serve it to the audience.”

“It's a bit unusual that I'm the novelist and the actor who is reading out his own material.”

“I've been lucky enough to travel the world and win awards and medals, but it was time to stop.”

“If I can work with Shyam Benegal and Yash Chopra together, who are the kings of art house and commercial cinema and win awards for both of them then it means I have placed myself everywhere.”

“It feels fantastic, I never thought I would get anything, I've won awards and things but I never thought I would get an OBE - it's extraordinary.”
