“I want to create things while I have time on Earth, and the art of costume and culture has always inspired me.”

“When you have an audience standing and screaming the entire way through the short program and cheering every element you do, whether it's footwork, or spin, or a jump, to have that kind of emotion coming at you from every direction in the building, it's the most amazing sensation you can get as a sportsman.”

“I'm not commercial, I'm not for Special K cereal and I'm not a Wheaties boy; I'm a little bit more avant-garde, a little bit more out there.”

“I knew I would grow up and wear a costume one day, and that's exactly what happened.”

“'Agnivarsha' is not a costume drama like Shashi Kapoor's 'Utsav' or Sanjay Leela Bhansali's 'Devdas.' This one has no elaborate jewellery and clothes. It is sparse and stark.”

“None of my costume designers have ever been nominated for an Oscar 'cause I don't do period movies that have ball scenes with a hundred extras in them.”
