Quotes

  • “Certainly we were disappointed. But the thing that really kept us in our spirits was that the entire country was behind us.”
  • “Shammiji is said to be India's answer to Elvis Presley, but I say that Elvis Presley is America's answer to Shammi Kapoor. The mark of a good actor is the belief with which he gives a shot and Shammiji gave his each shot with a strong belief and that makes him a great actor of all times.”
  • “Indian film awards lack credibility.”
  • “It's not important to me... people will see my films if they want to. Also, I cannot deal with so many things, I have bandwidth only for that much.”
  • “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.”
  • “In the last two years there was a brief period that he decided to quit the films as it is affecting his personal life in many ways.”
