“What a stupid attitude we have in this country to personal stories.” — Amanda Burton Quote

What a stupid attitude we have in this country to personal stories.

I always start from scratch with a character - they're never based on anyone else. You get ideas of what people look like, and I'm a great people watcher. You can draw inspiration from people.

I like to think I'm a listener, and I'm fascinated by observing people - I suppose you just lock that in.

Being an actor is an extension of telling a story and I loved story telling as a child.

I have sleepless nights before press days.

I was looking for something a lot heavier, yet melodic at the same time. Something different from heavy metal, a different attitude.

We have never been colonized, because of our attitude... We have the confidence, the moral authority, and our people are also enough to tell us what they want to tell us.

I just want to go in with the right attitude and from Day 1 make a difference.

The reactionary is always willing to take a progressive attitude on any issue that is dead.

If you've made it big in Bollywood, such as Kareena Kapoor Khan and Katrina Kaif, and then you do an item song, it becomes a 'guest appearance.' That's how it works. Sadly, that's the attitude of our Hindi film industry.
