A Quote by Jaideep Ahlawat

I think with Shahid Khan I knocked at the door of Indian cinema. It was a beautiful character and Anurag Kashyap managed to bring that on screen with the same beauty. I was lucky to play him and become a part of a milestone film like 'Gangs of Wasseypur.'

Anurag wanted to cast me for 'Gangs of Wasseypur,' but he didn't approach me for it as he had an unflattering image of me in his mind. I regret big-time about this as I was very much willing to be part of such a powerful film.

Ravi Kishan

Going international is my game. I've always wanted to do it, and after 'Aadukalam,' I got to meet Anurag Kashyap, the face of alternate Indian cinema to the world.

Vetrimaaran

I decide intuitively what I want to do. When directors like Imtiaz Ali, Ayan Mukerji, Anurag Basu and Anurag Kashyap, who have stories to tell, come to me, why would I not be a part of it?

Ranbir Kapoor

I remember, during an ad shoot, Anurag said to me that you are doing my film, and I was wondering do we really get films so easily. I thought you have to struggle and all. But he kept his word and offered me 'Gangs Of Wasseypur.'

Huma Qureshi

I love Huma Qureshi. She was amazing in 'Gangs Of Wasseypur.' I also love Richa Chaddha. She played a mother in 'Gangs Of Wasseypur.' And then I saw 'Fukrey' where she played a gangster, and I couldn't believe it was the same girl.

Waheeda Rehman

I fell in love with Nawaz on-screen after watching 'Gangs of Wasseypur.' So my love story starts with him from there. I was quite nervous to act alongside him. He is an excellent actor.

Amy Jackson

I would personally not run down any cinema just because I am not capable of making it. Anurag Kashyap makes a certain kind of cinema; I make a different kind. But when we meet, we are friendly.

Rohit Shetty

I would love to work with anybody who has a good story to tell - Patrick Graham, Vikramaditya Motwane, Anurag Kashyap, Neeraj Ghaywan, Coen Brothers, Wes Anderson. I don't know why I was not considered for that Indian guy's part in 'The Grand Budapest Hotel.'

Jim Sarbh

I was just lucky to be a part of this phenomenon of Indian cinema. Perhaps no other film can ever match the magic and awe of 'Baahubali.'

Prabhas

I share different relationships with all directors. I share a beautiful working relationship with Anurag Kashyap. Sriram Raghavan is such an inspiration and I have always wanted to work with them. I gel really well with filmmakers like these.

Amit Trivedi

Indian cinema gives you everything that western cinema doesn't. It's maseladar and spicy. If you like Indian food, I think you'll love Indian movies.

Shahid Kapoor

In 'Gangs of Wasseypur,' I wanted to take violence forward and play it up.

Anurag Kashyap

Oye Lucky!' released in November 2008 and in mid 2010, I was signed for 'Gangs of Wasseypur.' For me, the gap wasn't so much - just a year-and-a-half.

Richa Chadha

Plays are literature: the word, the idea. Film is much more like the form in which we dream - in action and images (Television is furniture). I think a great play can only be a play. It fits the stage better than it fits the screen. Some stories insist on being film, can't be contained on stage. In the end, all writing serves to answer the same question: Why are we alive? And the form the question takes - play, film, novel - is dictated, I suppose, by whether its story is driven by character or place.

Israel Horovitz

I'd like to be part of out-of-the-box films like 'Shahid.' I see myself being part of realistic cinema.

Rithvik Dhanjani

The film industry is large enough and has many successful icons that have taken Indian cinema to shores beyond India. I think that Indian cinema itself needs to be applauded beyond one individual.

Amitabh Bachchan
