    The first thing that strikes me is that this is a film that fits into the mental framework of the new generation. It has been made completely by my son, Randhir Kapoor; I have produced it, no doubt, but it has been completely designed and executed by Randhir, and his writer, Prayag. It reminds me, way back when, in the 1950s, I made a film called A...

    Well, this gets us into very long, controversial kind of criticisms and beliefs, but I do think that certain influences on people react on their children, and certain influences of the past, if you do believe in the inheritance of say, virtuous deeds done by ancestral goodness. I do believe that there are certain deeds of one's lifetime that affect...

    If not Randhir, his writer definitely, because they were all children who worked in Awarawhen I was making it. They were young kids.

    They were all slum children, children of the gutters. But then that was a film of its time, when we were going through a reformatory change in our own country. And of the disparity between the rich and the poor, which was there then, and is there now, but we are more conscious of it now. That's what Dharam Karamis about.

    To the artistes and others. It could be anybody. My emotional belonging, whatever I have experienced, consumed. I have been very precocious since I was a child, and I felt, and tried to belong and consume whatever I could out of life, no matter what the circumstances, no matter what the situation, and thereby, tried to be a barometer to myself, emo...

    Absolutely. And also my belonging towards people, people who have been with me, and I have been very much with them, no matter who they were, in any sphere of activity..... it is just not women I have loved, there have been men that I have revered, adored. They are all there with me, in compartments of my mind and heart, I retain them there....

    Naturally. But there are some things you can get out of negative experiences. You can manage to take out something positive from that too, something that will enhance and enrich you as a human being you learn to philosophize upon it. For instance, in the film that I am going to make, Satyam Shivam Sundaram - that may sound like a mythological, Sans...

    An experience.....that which is on the surface may not necessarily be beautiful or what one hears may not be the truth. It is only you yourself, and your realization, that can define truth. Your own belief and conscience and that becomes your reality.

    Yes, it will be a cliche to the young, which they will realize when their young ones ask them the same question you are asking me now. But this is eternity; it has been coming over the years. What is young today will not remain young tomorrow.

    A certain realization of what flaw as beautiful, as truthful, as lovable. Not only saw, heard, felt and believed......
