There is more to Indian cinema than just Bollywood. I think regional cinema, especially Tamil and Marathi cinema, are exploring some really bold themes.
From Anurag Kashyap
When you are very idealistic, but caught in a world which is all about business, it creates anguish.
The West sometimes doesn't understand Bollywood, but they can definitely understand how Bollywood influences people.
'The Dark Knight' is a really good movie that reached both critics and mainstream audiences.
There shouldn't be any censorship on making a film.
All those pseudo-Hollywood movies set nowhere, with everybody good looking and having great physique - that's not working any more.
People always accuse me of making these dark, depressing movies. 'Why do you have to pick up on real issues? People are so exhausted and miserable.'
Conventional Indian cinema is about people falling in love. They sing, they dance.
Fans are your greatest enemies because they tend to bracket you. And the moment someone expects I should do something, I break out. I often tell fans who say, 'Make a 'Gulal 2' or 'Gangs 3,' that I am living my dream, not theirs.
I love travelling, and most scripts have been written while I have been travelling.
