“Looks is a matter of perception. At Cannes, Europeans think I am good ...” — Nawazuddin Siddiqui Quote

“Looks is a matter of perception. At Cannes, Europeans think I am good looking, while in India, I am not.”

“Love stories should be relatable.”

“For me, as an actor, there is no commercial or independent or art cinema. For me, it's a character that is given by the director. And it is a task for me that I have to fulfill it to the best of my ability regardless of the kind of film that it is.”

“I've been to the Met Ball and the Tonys, but Cannes is particularly huge. Every time at these big events, it's just - whoa. Because at the end of the day, I'm a guy from Devonshire who grew up on a farm who loves his dog.”

“You hear people saying, 'Oh I'm so tired, I've had enough of Cannes.' How can you have enough of Cannes? It's just the best place to be, like a fairytale.”

“My defining moment was when I finally went to Cannes and saw my name along with international filmmakers.”
