You know you are old when what you still think of as recent films are remade.
I feel old films should not be remade.
Four of my films have been remade in Tamil and Telugu. Although I haven't seen any of these remakes, I do feel happy that I've been a part of good films. It's nice to know that some scripts still leave behind a mark after their theatrical run this way, so I have to admit, it is quite flattering.
I don't think 'Magadheera' should be remade, nor do I think it will be remade. It is very difficult to recreate the same magic.
It is cool to know that my films down south are being remade in Bollywood.
Making movies in France is different, but it's still acting, you know. You still have doubts and you're scared, always, but I really love doing films in America, because I love to speak English. But I think there's something very entertaining about American films. But I also like the intimacy of French films.
You know, the New Testament is pretty old. I think they should call them the Old Testament and the Most Recent Testament.
Some films shouldn't be remade.
When I was twelve, the passage from silent film to the talkies had an impact on me-I still watch silent films. I don't think that there is any such thing as an old film; you don't say, 'I read an old book by Flaubert,' or 'I saw an old play by Moliere.'
I don't think I make genre films. I think studios try to sell films as genres because they know how to do that. There's nothing wrong with that. I don't know what I make. It's sort of a pot roast, all my films.
When films are remade, it often becomes a big deal. In theater, it's called a revival.
I am one of the very few lucky actors whose films is being remade in his lifetime.
'Deewar' has been remade so many times, 'Trishul' has been remade so many times. But 'Don' - no one has gone into this area as often as they have gone into these other movies, and I think it fits into the modern sensibility of movie viewing quite well.
I wasn't into fairytales when I was little. I was of the generation of the earlier Disney films where many of the female characters, with the exception of the Maleficent's, were not little girls that I admired... the little princesses. They weren't characters that I identified with. I think that's very different now for my girls and more recent films.
I love looking at the old Bond films. Maybe it's purely out of reminiscence, the nostalgic things you think about. But there were some very good films made, and I think that the public has enjoyed them, too.
The consumption of information, films, music has been changing in recent decades. It's hard to know what will become the film that can not easily reach [audiences].
I have two sisters, so we watched all of the Disney films. I think I still know the lyrics to them all.
