I sincerely believe that Indians have the ability to compete with the best in the world.

I don't think there's any dearth of talent in India - we've always had the best juniors in the world.

India has lot of talent. What I am happy with is that the talent keeps on coming. Certainly it could be nice, though I am not terribly keen on seeing my successor yet.

What strikes me every single time is that the aspirations of Indians are unique and unparalleled. They're very demanding, regardless of background.

It is very important to highlight the young talent of India.

Indians have very good engineering capabilities, and that is why, if an industry focuses on innovation, you will have a far greater chance of success, rather than the model which is based on just being a production machine.

Indian cricketers need more exposure, and as cricket administrators, we need to beef up the domestic circuit. Only then will fresh talent come up.

There are certainly talented instrumentalists coming from India. I see them performing all over the world.

Nobody who has done business in any country with an Indian would doubt the shrewdness of Indians, but what Indian people bring to the world is something special and unique, which is the capacity for a loving interaction.

I don't think that I will say that we are less talented in Bollywood, but our functioning is different. We cater to a different kind of audience.
