It's no use just by shouting out that it is bad or it's good. If someone feels bad about something, they should go and support the reins themselves.
The success of the film should depend on its budget.
West Bengal belongs to Bengalis. We should live here like a king and not as servants.
I would like to produce films, but I feel I am an unsuccessful producer. That's the fact.
Film line is all about chance. I don't think much, I just like to take chances.
'Dance India Dance' is family to me. I actually miss the madness whenever the season is not on air.
I'll campaign for anyone who's honest and who I like, irrespective of the party.
I'm not into politics. I have received offers to enter politics, but I have not been tempted so far. I can't say about the future.
I'm not a person who wants to die with my shoes on. I do not think I can be immortal. Maybe my deeds will be immortal. Not me.
You become megastars when superstars start reprising your roles.
My son is a better dancer than me. I always try to encourage him in his endeavours.
I have maintained a low profile throughout my career but have always done things in my own unique way, be it dancing or dressing up. On the dance floor, I had my own unique steps and often had to lead my choreographer.
Actors are born, good actors are trained. Dancers are born, good dancers are trained.
My fan following is intact. They only like to see me in movies, which I am still doing for them. I do not need to do any long interviews or chat shows.
