Ravi Babu's films are known to have its heroines playing prominent roles. Further, all the heroines he has cast in his films are well-established, known faces. I consider myself lucky to have been considered by him to play Mohini.
I work with whatever mediums seems best suited to evoking the sorts of thoughts and emotions I am interested in playing with.
Everyone enjoys doing the kind of work for which he is best suited.
If you expect the best, you will be the best. Learn to use one of the most powerful laws in this world; change your mental habits to belief instead of disbelief. Learn to expect, not to doubt. In so doing, you bring everything into the realm of possibility.
Expect the Best, Expect Divine Guidance, Expect your Fortunes to Change, Expect a Miracle!
If you're not judging what happens, then you're trusting what others are doing, what you're playing, and trusting what you're playing.And it can lead you to other ideas, to something maybe you hadn't expressed before.
In most of my stories, I give a lot of importance to heroines. My heroines are not just glamour dolls.
I feel I have been playing all primary characters. And if your character forms a connect with the audience, it doesn't matter if you are playing only the main solo lead or a second lead.
Actors like Pran Sahab, Jagdeep, Asrani established their identities by doing specialized roles but today acting is more general. Actors used to be image conscious then but now heroines are also playing negatives, it is a notable change.
I'm always doing my best. Maybe people expect more of me, but I'm always doing my best.
I would say I was not working in the real sense in 'Paiyaa.' After doing very heavy scenes in my first two films, in 'Paiya,' I was romancing a girl, talking all sorts of funny things, and doing all light things just as if I were not acting!
'Badmaash Company' and 'Delhi Belly' was about friends, and I was part of the gang. And yes, they did have stars playing the lead! You do need a star to sell a film; and playing the second lead doesn't bother me.
I won't accept anything less than the best a player's capable of doing... and he has the right to expect the best that I can do for him and the team!
Contentment and happiness! Do everything happily. Walk,
talk, sit happily; even if you complain against somebody,
do it happily.
I enjoy doing commercial movies... the singing, dancing, romancing. I really look up to those movies.
Jnana, bhakti, yoga and karma - these are the four paths which lead to spiritual freedom. One must follow the path for which one is best suited. But in this age, special stress should be laid on karma yoga.
