Konkona Sen Sharma

“I am happy to do a film in Bengali language as I know and love that language.”

“I don't like walking the ramp.”

“It's not like I have anything against it, I just chose the kind of films that appeal to me, and mindless entertainers don't often appeal to me.”

“Although several actors have worked in films down South, I feel unsure of whether I will be able to emote and act as exuberantly as I do in Hindi and Bengali films.”

“I know the ropes of this industry, and I also know how unpredictable it can be.”

“I like my role in 'Akira,' which is a remake of a south Indian film. I play the role of a pregnant cop like the original. So, since it's the role of a pregnant cop, luckily I didn't have to do any stunts.”

“It befuddles me why I was offered so many intense, intellectual movies when I don't take myself seriously.”

“Unless I think I can manage to make something decent, I won't.”

“I had a baby and that is pretty time consuming.”

“Like any normal person, sometimes I like to dress up and sometimes I don't.”

“I do yoga; have been doing it for a long time now.”

“Irrfan is a very normal, laidback, regular guy. It has always been a pleasure and great fun working with him.”

“I'm very used to being misquoted.”

“It seems quite unlikely that I'll make a masala film.”

“I know that my worldview is not a majoritarian one, that it's not a popular way of thinking.”

“Usually working in a film does not affect my personal life in any way, thankfully!”

“I have never been a mass appeal kind of an actor, so I don't have to worry. I don't have to please everyone.”

“I don't like discussing about my personal life in front of everyone.”

“Motherhood has been a wonderful experience! It's a tough job as you are responsible for a human being, not just for their physical well-being and safety, but also their mental upbringing and formation of personality in some ways.”

“Mainstream cinema exists in most large industries and then there is the alternative cinema which does not follow the conventions of the mainstream movies. But when your film is small and does not have A-listers, then you have a limited budget and it becomes hard to release your film.”
