Personal Quotes

Critics have a job to do. They do not criticise you without reason.

About his father taking on the role of Marlon Brando in _Sarkar (2005)_ : "Please don't compare my father with Brando. It belittles both the actors who are big in their own fields. Even if my father plays _The Godfather (1972)_ , he'll do so in his own way."
