I've been composing music for feature films since 2007. I've been creating music for films for 13 years and I totally enjoy and love doing that. However, I have a lot of music inside me which I want to share with you all in a different way.

Amit Trivedi

All these years, I have never forgotten what my parents have given me, and that is why I take special pride in composing music based on ragas and used folk music in films like 'Apne Paraye.'

Bappi Lahiri

In the history of Indian cinema I am the only South Indian director who has survived for 12 years and 25 films in Bollywood.

Priyadarshan

Films today show only a dream world and have lost touch with the way people really are... In this country, people die at 21. They die emotionally at 21, maybe younger... My responsibility as an artist is to help people get past 21... The films are a roadmap through emotional and intellectual terrain that provides a solution on how to save pain.

John Cassavetes

Indian cinema has completed 100 years. How many new stories can you bring every time? It's not possible.

Jackie Shroff

I could create music that sounded as strange as any electronic music, because you see, my opinion about electronic music is that the real composer is the guy who invented the instrument. Pressing buttons is not composing. Composing is about creating something.

Glenn Branca

I've done 21 films in eight years, and I've said 'No' more times than I've done films.

Mekhi Phifer

I was not interested in films, but I was forced to act when I was just 14 or 15 years old. Now, I feel that that was not the right age to enter films. One should at least be 21 to enter the industry.

Sangeetha Krish

I have been working and composing music since 1986. Over the years, I have seen our music industry go through all kinds of transformation.

Adnan Sami

I completed 25 films in 16 years and I feel very happy about it.

Nithiin

Nobody wants the expenditure of a lease on a factory which lasts 21 years. You can't plan 21 years ahead.

James Dyson

I started making 8mm films when I was 13, so I've been directing for 21 years.

Bryan Singer

Bollywood music is definitely a big part of Indian music and can be a great way to introduce people to the sound. But I hope to continue to incorporate other types of Indian music into my work.

A. R. Rahman

I just don't feel like composing music for films because I find there is too much pretense in the industry and creativity has been replaced by the sole thought of making money.

Rajesh Roshan

The following twenty years would be the nadir of American Indian history, as the total Indian population between 1890 and 1910 fell to fewer than 250,000. (It was not until 1917 that Indian births exceeded deaths for the first time in fifty years.)
