“I was complexed and awkward that I was good for nothing and was always...” — Imtiaz Ali Quote

I was complexed and awkward that I was good for nothing and was always lying. I would lie to my school friends that I was a stud in my colony and to my colony friends that I was a stud in the school cricket and football teams, though I was in no team.

My father did irrigation jobs, and I would sometimes accompany him, and that gave me a taste of what was going on in the innards of India.

If a person wants to enjoy attention, he will create situations to get it.

I'm not the 'look at me' kind of a person. I do not like showing off in public or written about.

Plots may be simple or complex, but suspense, and climactic progress from one incident to another, are essential.

I grew up with people staring at me because I was such a tall, awkward girl.

Bumrah's action is a bit awkward, so you don't see his slower balls. He can trick you with pace. He is a lot quicker than he looks.

Hearing my songs in public freaks me out a bit. There was one restaurant I really liked in L.A., but I had to stop going there when they started playing my music. It felt kinda awkward.
