I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success.
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.
I do not believe that I am a perfectionist one bit. I truly believe that perfection is something that no one can achieve.
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.
The journey that I have undertaken, meeting people from all walks of life and learning from them, has been my biggest achievement.
I don't do films because they tell a particular kind of story, I do films with stories that touch me.
I Am More Spiritual Than Religious; Besides I Am Not A Fanatic
Our society covers these problems with a veil. All I want is an open discussion
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.
Education is education, be it verbal or written.
The true marker of success is when the creative minds behind a film can sit down and feel that they have succeeded in the mission they set out to accomplish - and that is to make good cinema. If we feel that we have achieved that as a team, then we have all been successful.

Mammootty sir is an idol for me.. His uniqueness in developing characters is quite amazing
I am very passionate about being an actor, and I allow my passion to find its outlet in the work I do. I don't believe that it can be called perfection. It is true that when I am intensely passionate about my films, which I am, I don't leave any stone unturned and I put every ounce of my energy into that project.
If a script has that affect on me during a reading, then it is definitely a film I want to be part of.
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.
When you work with a good actor, there is this natural rapport and chemistry that develops over time. That chemistry helps your characters come alive and makes the story of the film that much more convincing.
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.
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.
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.
A film just doesn't involve actors, a director and a producer, there is also the cameraman, the sound engineer, the music composer, the lyric writer. So many people come together to make a film. When we all feel satisfied with the film that we have created it's a win for all of us.
