“I had directed a short film called 'Girvhi' earlier, on child labour. ...” — Soni Razdan Quote

I had directed a short film called 'Girvhi' earlier, on child labour. It was a fictional story. At that time, I realised I could direct a film if given a chance.

I was a complete anomaly in this business. I didn't fit into the Hema Malini-Zeenat Aman commercial cinema mould, neither the Shabana Azmi-Smita Patil art cinema mould.

I was a struggling actor all my life.

Alia and Shaheen have a smart father and have got good genes. But it's not fair that people expect them to do as well as their father.

I'm an actress. I'm ready to work anytime.

In Europe, it is not so unusual for directors to move between opera, theatre, and film, and I have at least three girlfriends I can think of who have directed in all three genres.

I directed a piece of theater in Italy. We took nine fables from the town and we created a play.

My first time I directed a play was 'No Exit,' a play set in a subway.

I have seen 'Sanju,' and it is a well-made commercial film. However, it was left unexplored. I would have directed it with a different approach.

I've directed web series, music videos, film shorts, and theater. It's just a hat I put on.
