“There is a future for English films. Don't we all talk, breathe, and think in English? If we can talk and think in English, we can also make films in English.”

“I think Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, and Ranveer Singh are doing a fabulous job.”
“As a viewer, I decide when I see the promo of a film whether I want to watch it or not. No amount of marketing can convince me otherwise.”

“We're in a business where we need to look good. That is what people come to see. You have to take care of yourself.”
“Women sometimes get so caught up in life... their marriage takes over their life, their relatives take over their life, and then they forget who they are.”
“I often meet directors who want to cast me as the protagonist, but if the rest of the characters are not strong enough, the film is bound to fall flat on a creative level.”
“I think all my life's story is condensed in my face. It is neither innocent nor coy. It speaks volumes.”
“I made my film debut in 1973.”
“I haven't been a prototype mother.”
“Actors used to concentrate on acting, but today they are businessmen, too, and think about the numbers game as well. They multi-task very well. It's admirable that they have this ability.”
“I have done fewer films than I should have. No regrets. I wanted to be at home.”
“I would like to do a role that has something to do with mysticism or even a supernatural one.”

“People call me fussy, but that's a fallacy.”

“I was never a chiffon and satin person. I am always a cotton person. It's just the way I am.”
“It's always exciting starting a new film.”
“I really swung between the extremes. From the danger of being ostracised by the society, I almost overnight found myself as virtually the darling of the millions.”
