We have filmmakers who make films with some kind of responsibility and take cinema seriously like Shyam Benegal, Govind Nihalani, Prakash Jha. But now these people also take stars Without stars they cannot work.

Om Puri

I would love to do a period film and work with Shyam Benegal.

Neha Dhupia

A shot of Shyam Benegal inspires me a lot. I wonder why a film of David Dhawan cannot have a shot like that.

Priyadarshan

I was overjoyed when I was offered the title role in 'Well Done Abba.' I was ready for the role even before I heard the story because you don't ask questions when it is Shyam Benegal's film. It is the chance of a lifetime.

Boman Irani

In Shyam Benegal's 'Welcome To Sajjanpur,' I'm an illiterate village girl.

Amrita Rao

Shyam Benegal's 'Welcome to Sajjanpur,' 'Luck' and, of course, 'Raavan' changed things for me.

Ravi Kishan

I have worked with acclaimed filmmakers like Shyam Benegal, Mani Ratnam, Anurag Kashyap and Tigmanshu Dhulia.

Ravi Kishan

I was watching an interview with Martin Scorcese concerning Raging Bull, which is one of my favorite films, and he was talking about how he'd worked with a lot of guys who weren't quote-unquote "actors," like Joe Pesce and Frank Vincent. Scorcese was very smart in the way that he cast, because you don't know where you're going to find the right person who can carry a role and summon that emotion you're looking for.

Lenny Kravitz

I feel proud when my old films are still talked about and 'Zubeidaa' is one of them. It has been directed by one of the great filmmakers of the country, Shyam Benegal.

Manoj Bajpayee

I carry too much baggage... the baggage of David Lean, Satyajit Ray, Shyam Benegal.

Victor Banerjee

I have been selective from the very beginning. And I did get to work with some big names like Basu Chatterjee and Shyam Benegal, among others.

Deepti Naval

Shyam Benegal has found a lovely voice in this film. We've all seen the kind of cinema he's come up with over the years. His films like 'Mandi,' 'Manthan,' 'Sooraj Ka Saatvan Ghoda' all have revolutionised the face of Indian cinema. And in 'Well Done Abba,' he has once again found a relevant subject, which even youngsters can relate with.

Boman Irani

If I can work with Shyam Benegal and Yash Chopra together, who are the kings of art house and commercial cinema and win awards for both of them then it means I have placed myself everywhere.

Divya Dutta

You would be surprised of films that people just don't see. You know what I mean? I'm always working and I'm a film buff but I'm an old school film buff.

Mike Epps

Finally after 19 years of stage work Shyam Benegal noticed me and I got my first break as an actor in 'Ankur' after that I have been seen on and off on screen as a bad guy, as a father or as an uncle.
