I would love to make a documentary on my father, Mahesh Bhatt. What is interesting about Bhatt sahab is that he became more interesting personality after he left work.

Pooja Bhatt

I began as an assistant director to Mahesh Bhatt sahab on films like 'Zulm,' 'Kabza' and 'Aawargi' during the '80s. Then I got an opportunity to act and I took it up thinking direction was something which I could always pursue later.

Arbaaz Khan

From Alia Bhatt to Pooja Bhatt and Mahesh Bhatt, everyone was involved with me in the making of 'Tum se hi.'

Ankit Tiwari

Whatever little films I did, I got to work with big names like Aditya Chopra, Mohit Suri and Mahesh Bhatt.

Shamita Shetty

My first Hindi film as a leading man was Mahesh Bhatt's 'Saaransh,' which immediately established me as someone who knows the craft.

Anupam Kher

After college, I was living in New York and wrote furiously, a huge novel that I knew was a failure. I hoped that the book would work, but to be honest, I think I knew it would never work, even as I was finishing it.

Chang-Rae Lee

Mahesh Bhatt introduced me to the world of films.

Once, a man at the customs duty check at the Delhi Airport asked me a question in Hindi, and I told him that I didn't speak the language. He got angry and said, 'How could you not speak in Hindi? Hindi is our mother tongue.' I told him that it wasn't my mother tongue. He got furious, and made me wait for over 45 minutes.

Vetrimaaran

Just like you have a fashion council in Delhi to organise fashion shows, promote Indian fashion, etc, there must be such a body for films as well, especially because Delhi is now becoming the hub for movie shoots.

Satish Kaushik

When I stopped my work in films and took over the management of the house, sometime after marriage, my new avatar was replicated hilariously by Dilip Sahab a few times having me and my mother in splits.

Saira Banu

I have always been known as Mahesh Bhatt's wife, and I would tell people, 'Hello! I'm here!' This has always been a struggle. I would like to be known for who I am. I'm very happy to be known as his wife or Alia's mother. But I am also a person who, in her own right, has gone through quite a lot of odds.

Soni Razdan

Especially when you work with people like Mahesh Bhatt, you can't go wrong.

Shamita Shetty

I would love to work with Alia Bhatt. I think she is very talented and has been really good in all her films.

Kartik Aaryan

My mother saw nothing inconsistent in her traditional desire to look after her husband and children and her radical politics. She began her civil rights work before most people had ever heard the word 'feminism,' and in those early years, she was focused on racial justice.

Ezekiel Emanuel

I started as a child artist, and not as a heroine, as most would think. I was performing on stage once when the late Bimal Roy saw me and asked me if I would work in films. I was too tiny. Without realising, I just said yes.
