“When I had entered Bollywood, I had decided that in the first decade of my career, I will do what others ask me to do, and in the next decade, I will do what I want.”
“Everyone in this country loves me I will not to do any role which will demean my name.”
“It's true that I have never done something like 'Yaar Dhokebaaz, Pyaar Dhokebaaz.' I colored my hair golden-brown. I am bare-chested in the song and have my own style of dancing. I thoroughly enjoyed what I was doing.”
“I don't want to carry the burden of the past with me.”
“I don't suffer from an inferiority complex because of my looks.”
“I personally don't identify with the character of a man who suffers inferiority complex due to a difference in height with his wife. I am a very confident person in real life and have no such hang-ups.”
“While shooting in Patiala, I never felt as if I was shooting here for first time, such was the love I got from the locals and Punjabi actors shooting with me.”
“A filmmaker who is good today might go on to fail tomorrow, and one that is not so good today, might become successful.”
“Where I come from in U.P., there is a whole settlement of Punjabis who converted sandy, barren lands into green fields swaying with agricultural produce. So, I have always had great respect for the Punjabi community.”
“The third line of cinema today is neither art nor commercial but categorized as good and bad cinema. I think two films - 'Main, Meri patni aur Who' and 'Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon' were the base films for this new line of cinema.”
“If you have capabilities then the audience will accept you with an open gate. The way you would show them your identity, they will accept you. But you should have the honesty to show your true identity.”
“I love comedy but I am Rajpal Yadav. I am not a comedian.”
“If Rajpal Yadav will be known by a name the reason behind it will only be Rajpal Yadav and no one else.”
“My father is a very sweet man. He has led a very honest life. Perhaps it's the result of his goodness that I am doing well in my career.”
“I don't think negatively.”
“I got a break in 1999 in Ram Gopal Varma's 'Jungle.' I won awards for 'Jungle.'”
“I don't know how to pray and don't believe in any superstitions, but my belief in myself is very strong.”
“I have been wanting to add an 'a' in my name for a long time. Finally, I managed to do that.”
“My wife's half-Indian, her father's from Uganda and she was born in Canada. Her sister speaks French and their family speaks a little Gujarati, and I'm talking about Gujarati from 1940! And just think - Rajpal Yadav in the middle of all this. What a contrast!”
“I have two mothers - Maa and cinema, so I am grateful to Bollywood for giving me a lot.”
