When there is unhealthy competition everybody is a loser.

I am thrilled to be a part of Tamil cinema as it is an interesting place.

Even though I was away from the public eye, I was in the public memory.

I ensure that I read the entire script of each project that comes my way. In fact, it is the script alone that evokes my interest in any film.

It's not winning or losing. It's the friends and the people that you meet along the way.

No matter what message you are about to deliver somewhere, whether it is holding out a hand of friendship, or making clear that you disapprove of something, is the fact that the person sitting across the table is a human being, so the goal is to always establish common ground.

When I was in my 30s, I was at the end of a long-term relationship and going through a very hard time. I'd had about 15 different addresses and a series of relationships. I thought, 'It's time to have a look at yourself.'

When I see David Attenborough talking about how chimps live, big apes, I just remember my dad and the way he'd look at you. He couldn't speak, but everything else about him was, 'This is us, a family.' Relationships are just as intense as they are for people who can speak. Probably more so.
