10. Over the years, with all the experience, I've become more mature about the subjects I pick. I have a better understanding of what works at the box office. Once the story is finalized, I surrender to the director and follow him. After that, my performances speak for themselves.


11. I always believe that one can't interfere in another's work. Once I start work on any film, I surrender myself completely and blindly follow the director.
