I've realized that my... let me call it 'destiny' or some force that has pushed me to identify looking for your comfort zone as a kind of limitation. And everybody has a tendency to fall into the comfort zone. I did that in the early stage of my career.
From Irrfan Khan
We don't have a culture of realistic acting in India.
Parsi theater was known for melodrama.
Sometimes when you're playing a very intense character, a disturbed character, you find other layers. That's much more interesting to me, rather than just playing 'intense.' I find it too boring.
I can't think of a more pathetic situation for an actor than to do a film and not connect to it. And I pray to God that I never face that situation.
A film engages you emotionally and intellectually.
I'm trying to strike a balance between Bollywood and Hollywood.
I will only do a Hollywood film when there is something special offered to me.
You cannot reduce the power of story with the tag of money because it's not a share market. So you must know the seriousness of the power of storytelling.
When you come out of the theatre and you don't even talk about that film or remember it, then it disappoints me.
