Highlights

• Challenges keep the intensity to work better intact

• After almost 42 years in the film industry, I believe that I shall change for good and adjust according to my age

• Puri Jagannath on Buddha hoga tera baap “"I wanted to make a movie that would bring back those very elements that made me admire Amitabh”

• I get angry when people do not follow the rules like breaking traffic rules, or indiscipline in any form

• The grandpa to be thanks the mediums that are responsible for such a reaction from all over the country on the news, congratulating mails are pouring. Says I am overwhelmed.

• I still feel embarrassed at times on the sets as the average age to do lead roles is about 25. Though I am 70, I feel joyful of being in a company which is determined to do well.

• There has to be a community device for charity where we can do it quietly rather than making an exhibition of it.

• Being a celebrity you must know that you are going to be followed, quoted, and looked at, whatever you do. So I and my family ought to behave in a rather disciplined fashion

• My character in Buddha is a flamboyant, arrogant and a cool ex-gangster. The movie is a happy, entertaining film.

• I still go to discos and clubs with Abhishek and party

• Jab bhi mujhe gaali dena hota hai toh main beep bol deta hoon, isse do cheezein hoti hain, ek toh meri zabaan saaf rehti hai aur do saamney waale ki izzat ki beep lag jaati hai" . I would never do a DK Bose for that matter
