“If a film has a social message, it is very important for me to know what the message is and how it’s going to be delivered, but it’s not something I look for all the time.”

When I was new, I didn’t know where my career will go. Initially, my films were not even successful, but then I learned a lot from my mistakes.

Badminton is like ballet dancing. It requires a lot of control, strength, mind play and measured movement

I am happy that I have entertained people and made them happy.

Indian film awards lack credibility.

Box office figures are not something that can decide the success of a film on its own, but they are one of the many yardsticks that help me measure how well a film has been received.

The journey that I have undertaken, meeting people from all walks of life and learning from them, has been my biggest achievement.

I am raising my voice as a citizen of the country. I don?t want to enter politics.

Losing someone we love, or the fear of losing someone we love one day is a difficult experience and we can all relate to it. None of us are an exception to this reality.

I do what I feel is right. I do not fear to walk on a new path and take risk.

The truth is that no matter how many retakes you do, each will be different and that is the nature of any creative medium. There’s no such thing as perfection.

Mammootty sir is an idol for me.. His uniqueness in developing characters is quite amazing

I would love to work with Salman. We have a great tuning so if we work together, it will be great fun. But till the time we don’t get a good script, a script that excites both of us, we can’t work together.

I enjoy thelove I receive from my fans and my audience. But I think I know what is realfor me and what is not.

I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success.

The rule I have when choosing films is the excitement factor, I need to feel excited about the story and whatever message the film has – only then do I sign on the dotted line.

If there is Katrina Kaif in any film, the movie is a hit

Maliki saw Islamic State as a way to exert pressure. If I am not re-elected, terror will befall you – that was his message.

The media is the message. It carries the full intention and the meaning. Once you change it…it’s very disturbing.

It has been a process ever since and I am now a big advocate in the message that we are not alone and we all have ample creativity within us if we just trust it.

It seems to me that He above all desired to bring men a message of truth, that He wanted to heal them of their faults by making an appeal to all their energy; He shook them as much as He could, He did not seek to spare them the trouble.

I still believe that love is all you need. I don’t know a better message than that.

Sexist grammar burns into the brains of little girls and young women a message that the male is the norm, the standard, the central figure beside which we are all deviants.

It’s as if, in the mother’s eyes, her smile, her stroking touch, the child first reads the message:’You are there!’

My message is a peaceful one and I hope that the idea will spread.
