Growing up, I loved films like 'A Streetcar Named Desire' and 'On the Waterfront' and became a huge fan of Marlon Brando.

Khoobsurat' was an eye-opener in many ways. Cinema is a colossal money-churning business in India, and working in that environment offered me quite an incredible learning experience.

I wanted to do animation, so for lack of available career counselling, took up Bachelor's in Computer Science, but managed to get only C grades.

I stumbled into acting because a friend persuaded me to leave my 9 to 5 job and get into acting.

The critical question is: How do we ensure that the Internet develops in a way that is compatible with democracy?

Many people think we are a technology company, but we are totally customer-led.

Historically the director has been the key creative element in a film and we must maintain that. We must protect that, in spite of the fact that there is new technology that's continually trying to erode that.
