I don't like awards ceremonies. I'd sooner go to the pub with mates I've known for years.
I like going down the pub with my mates and horse racing. I don't do anything that exciting.
Trevor and I had been going to awards ceremonies for years. People knew. Look, if you don't get married by age 65, people know something's up.
Though I was nominated for awards for films like 'Tezaab' and 'Apna Sapna Money Money' but I never won an award. Now I am not even nominated for any awards but still I attend the award functions as I love being there despite figuring prominently in a lot of leg pulling that goes around in the award ceremonies.
With some people ,the minute you start talking, it feels like you've known them for years. It only means that you were supposed to meet sooner. You're feeling all the time you should have known each other, but didn't. That time still counts. You can definitely feel it.
I don't have role models or watch much TV. I go to awards ceremonies but often I don't even know who the people are. I think that's good, because then you don't have preconceived ideas about them.
Everyone knows the feeling where you're in the pub and you make your mates laugh. It's awesome, you feel like you rock. That's what comedians want with a bit of extra ego.
I have the same mates I always had, I go to the same pub. I've got the same wife and kids and the same house. Nothing's changed.
That's how cricket should be broadcast. Ball-by-ball calling is important but you've got to be lighthearted like you're down the pub with your mates.
I live a very ordinary life. The rare awards ceremonies I go to are quite fun, because I can enjoy the irony of one minute walking to the tube, and the next being driven along the same stretch of road in a limo.
I think I was a pretty ordinary teenager, boring, just played video games with my mates and went to the pub, stuff like that. Just very normal.
Awards are like hemorrhoids. Sooner or later every asshole gets one.
I definitely think awards ceremonies should have gender-neutral categories.
I go from pub to pub, or jumping on buses or stopping cars. I don't need a TV audience. Every time I go naked, all of a sudden TV cameras pop up around me.
I get embarrassed on the red carpet at awards ceremonies. The whole celebrity thing is embarrassing.
I have perfected the art of putting my feet on my husband's lap during awards ceremonies so he can rub them.
The best comedy you can ever have is when you're in the pub with your mates. You can never beat that. That's what I try to recreate in stand-up.
