If the scripts are not good, I'll tell somebody, 'This isn't good.
I didn't want to be seen as just a guy on a list. I'm interested in good scripts, scripts that are about something, scripts that move your acting along.
I was really surprised to see how critical the Malayali audiences are. It is really overwhelming that people genuinely want good scripts and do not miss a chance to applaud good scripts.
It's very hard to tell somebody how to write when they're so good, and they're a brilliant writer and a really good guy.
A good script is like a work of art in itself. I've read hundreds of scripts, and good ones are very rare. If the writer has something to say, and a voice, and a plot that matches character, and an emotional trajectory that works, then I'd be an idiot to fool around with it. It's just that few scripts ever are like that.
I mean, there's always somebody in somebody's administration who jumps out early, sells a book, and goes after the guy who hired him. I don't know if that's good. It may be good business; it's not good politics.

I love people who have a good sense of humor, tell a good story, tell a good joke.
After 'Ishq Brandy,' I was either not getting good scripts or not good characters.
I will do a film if there is a good scope for acting. I am looking for good scripts.
The scripts of 'The Wire' are fantastic - the scripts of 'Breaking Bad,' the scripts of 'Mad Men,' the scripts of 'The Sopranos,' the scripts of 'Battlestar Galactica.' You could keep going on. They're incredibly well written.
You read a million scripts during pilot season, and most of them are not very good, so the good ones really shine.
There is a perception that I do certain kind of films. That's not true. I am open to any good scripts with a good role.
