“There is so much of stress in our day to day life and Hansa is stress ...” — Supriya Pathak Quote

There is so much of stress in our day to day life and Hansa is stress buster. So yes! I miss playing Hansa and she will always be close to my heart.

Even after being in the industry for so long, I still have a dream - a dream to work with my daughter Sanah.

Based on the role's requirement whether it needs genuine portrayal or going over the top, I understand the whole process and deliver the performance.

Working with good actors is a pleasure as acting is all about reacting.

Earlier, I used to always ask people if they want me to answer as Supriya or Hansa. If they said Hansa, and asked me a question, I would say, I don't know. That's because Hansa doesn't know anything! For me, it was important to reach that state of thing in mind where I don't question anything.

I am a stress buster. Because I knew what people react or think after watching me on screen and I love it.

I love going back to those silent films because my father who is totally deaf loved Buster Keaton. Loved him! More than Charlie Chaplin. He loved the pathos in his face. My father just loved that man.

I would have loved to have met Buster Keaton.

Buster Keaton's 'The General,' from 1927, I think is still one of the great films of all time.

There's something magical about film, it's the ultimate for me, because it's kind of permanent - inasmuch as anything is. When I went to see Buster Keaton when I was about 14 and I came out of the cinema having really laughed at this film which had been made 50 years before, I thought: That's immortality. It's fantastic.
