“I think the most important thing in a character to see that it has a presence. If people get angry after watching my character in the cinema that is almost negative, then I’ll feel quiet a satisfied and feel that I gave justice to the character. I should not feel wasted or redundant. Even if it is a negative role, the scenes that you have should make an impact, that is important.”

“When it comes to acting, I am still very reluctant. And I am very choosy about the kind of characters I play. Prasad has a very challenging role for me and the film's script is also very good; so I was interested as soon as I finished reading the script.”

“There’ll always be a conflict between ‘what’s in your head’ and ‘what you’ll see later’, and the right way is not to let that discourage you. If you aren’t willing to try, you’ll never make your ideal movie.”

“I would like to continue making movies for the rest of my life. Today Nepali film industry is ridiculed by most of the youth, especially the urban ones. I would like to change that. I know it’ll be difficult but I also strongly believe that the scenario can be changed.”
