When you write a story, it just flows and you don't control it. It's subconscious.
From Imtiaz Ali
I'm not the 'look at me' kind of a person. I do not like showing off in public or written about.
I just write characters, and somehow they happen to be a boy and a girl. When the story is put together, and their characters interwoven, they do end up together somehow.
Through travel, you discover a new aspect to your personality. You discover things which you wouldn't seated in the confines of your home.
Coming from a middle class background, travel was always considered a luxury then, even if it meant going to a relative's place or a religious shrine.
The physical journey in my films is indicative of the internal journey that my characters take.
I myself got married at a very young age. It has always intrigued me because marriage is very synthetic in an otherwise natural world.
I come from a middle class background. I have travelled a lot by trains and have lived in the world. It is a world I cannot get away from; I would not even want to.
I want to direct what I feel is interesting - not what is supposed to be my zone.
I have always tried to make profitable films because people's offices shut down if films fail, and I will do everything to avoid that.
