Jab hum akelepan (isolation) mein hote hain toh ek insaan ke roop mein theek se kaam nahi kar paate.
We don’t function well as human beings when we’re in isolation.

Mujhe documentaries dekhne ki lat hai. Television par main sirf wahi dekhta hoon.
I’m addicted to documentaries. That’s all I watch on television.

Rassi par chalne ki sabse rochak baat yeh hai ki hum ise hamesha niche se upar dekh kar hi anubhav karte hain. Yeh kisi circus ke khel jaisa lagta hai. Bas ek aadmi rassi par chal raha hota hai.
The thing that’s interesting about wire walking is that we never get to see it other than looking up. It’s like a circus thing. It’s a guy on a wire.

Hamare raaste mein chahe kitni bhi badhayein kyun na aayein, unhe swikaar karne aur unse ladkar jeene ke kayi raaste hote hain.
No matter how many obstacles that are thrown in our path, there are ways to except them and to live through them.

Jeevan ke rahasyon ko samajhiye—ek aise rahasya ke roop mein jise jeena hai.
Understand life’s mysteries – as mysteries to be lived.

मैं हमेशा से कहता आया हूँ कि फिल्में एक प्रेम प्रसंग की तरह होती हैं। दो लोग मिलते हैं, और अगर वे सही समय पर सही जगह और सही हालात में हों, तो बात बन जाती है। मुझे हमेशा से लगता रहा है कि पटकथाओं के साथ मेरा एक गहरा जुड़ाव रहा है। यह मुझमें छिपा एक रोमांटिक अंदाज़ है।
I’ve always said that movies are kind of like love affairs. Two people come together, and if they’re at the right place at the right time and it’s the right situation, it clicks. I’ve always felt that I’ve connected with screenplays. It’s the romantic in me.

फिल्में तो फिल्में होती हैं। कुछ लेंस के ज़रिए रोशनी को मोड़ती हैं, तो कुछ वर्चुअल तरीके से चलती-फिरती तस्वीरें बनाती हैं। लेकिन दिन के अंत में, फिल्में आखिर फिल्में ही होती हैं।
Movies are movies. Some bend light through a lens. Some create moving images virtually. At the end of the day, movies are movies.

जहाँ तक मैं देखता हूँ, डिजिटल सिनेमा ने फिल्म निर्माताओं में एक लापरवाही पैदा कर दी है क्योंकि वे जानते हैं कि अगर वे किसी मुसीबत में फँसे, तो बाद में उसे सुधार लेंगे। इसलिए वे ज़्यादा ध्यान नहीं देते, और ज़ाहिर है कि इसमें बहुत ज़्यादा पैसा भी खर्च होता है।
From where I sit I see the digital cinema creating sloppiness on the part of filmmakers because they know if they really get in trouble they can fix it later. So they don’t pay that much attention, and of course it costs a lot of money.

मैं कभी हिचकाॅक की तरह एक ही तरह की फिल्में नहीं बना सकता था। जो भी चीज़ अच्छी है, वह देखने लायक है।
I could never be like Hitchcock and do only one kind of movie. Anything that’s good is worthwhile.

एक फिल्म निर्माता के रूप में, आपको हमेशा अपने किरदारों के साथ खड़े होना चाहिए, हर फिल्म में, भले ही वे खलनायक ही क्यों न हों।
As a filmmaker, you’re always supposed to be with your characters, in all movies, even if they’re villains.

आने वाले कुछ सालों में, हर फिल्म की मेकिंग का एक हिस्सा तस्वीरों में सुधार करना होगा। और यह किसी अभिनेता की टाई का रंग बदलने या उसके मुँह के हल्के से अजीब हाव-भाव को बदलने के लिए होगा। या फिर आप आसमान में और बादल जोड़ सकते हैं या पेड़ को थोड़ा खिसका सकते हैं।
In the next couple of years, part of every film’s process is going to be to adjust the images. And it’ll be to change the color of an actor’s tie or change the little smirky thing he’s doing with his mouth. Or you can put in more clouds or move the tree a little bit.
