Many Hindi films that are Tamil remakes rake in huge moolah in Bollywood.
I'm not avoiding the Tamil film industry because I'm making Hindi films. It's just that I'm extremely busy with Bollywood commitments.
Most of Hindi films I made are remakes of my own films.
I want to do Hindi films, but a proper one and a good production. I'm even open to multi-starrers because those work better in Bollywood. But it should be with only Bollywood technicians, not the South Indian team. There's no point to my going to Bollywood if I work with the same artistes and technicians.
We will go to every part of Tamil Nadu and tell the people that Hindi is coming and that it is like a thunder strike on the heads of Tamil and Dravidian people.... If Hindi were to become the official language of India, Hindi-speaking people will govern us. We will be treated like third rate citizens
I've acted in Hindi, English, Tamil and Telugu films.
I'm not a television anchor for a Hindi channel or a radio jockey. So I may not be able to have a spontaneous conversation in Hindi. I'm a Bollywood actress, and I can certainly speak my dialogue in Hindi.
Bollywood is a different ballgame. I am quite used to Tamil and Telugu films.
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.
My Hindi is OK. I think I am better with Tamil. I remember the Tamil words.
Wanted' and 'Rowdy Rathore', which I directed in Hindi, were remakes of Telugu hits. Telugu films have contributed to my growth in a big way.
What's exciting is that after all these years, I have made my Bollywood debut. And the reach of the Hindi film industry is huge.
I don't mind acting in Hindi films, but the script has to suit me. It has to be a boy-next-door role because that's the image I have in Tamil cinema.
While Bollywood still remains my priority, I always wanted to do regional cinema. There are so many people who don't know Hindi, so I decided to do regional films wherein even those who don't know me can see my work.
Tamil films have to be faster than a Malayalam film but not as fast as a Hindi film.
Even when I had three Hindi films happening at the same time, Tamil and Telugu will always be an important industry considering I started my career there.
It is great that the industry is open to accepting character roles and moving away from the cliched Bollywood Hindi masala films.
