It was interesting to write ad films and scripts for TV shows before I moved on to writing a feature film. That helped me grow as a writer, and I also found out how long I could sit in front of a computer and see something through.

It amazes me how much noise there is on a set while people are trying to focus and do their jobs. But there's some kind of order within that chaos.

I realised that I enjoyed direction while making 'DCH.' The process of putting a film together and working with the cast and crew felt good.

Whatever films I make, the mandate is that it should touch the audiences and engage them from the first scene.

Even when I was writing the script for 'Don,' I suspected it could lead to a sequel.

I cannot imagine of making a film without Boman Irani.

I'm a bit of an extremist.

I wish I'd got my driving license at 18, not 22. I also wish I had graduated earlier, even though I didn't finish college.

Every movie gets exactly what it deserves.

I think, the world over, new ideas have come from young people. I'm not saying it doesn't happen, but it is rare that new or radical ideas come from old people.

I think all kids are rebellious. It's a part of growing up.

I used to lie a lot as a child, which I now regret. I think it is much easier just to tell the truth.

Definitely, I feel that there is a need for more female producers, directors, and writers.

As much as a man would like to believe that he understands women, there is simply that much that he can write from their point of view or really understand them.

There is a certain highlighting of issues, be it emotional, be it social, or simply an entertainment one: they can be written or directed by a woman differently, with a different voice. I feel that their voice needs to be given more stage and more space.

For 'Rock On,' we not only acted as rock musicians; we also went into the studio to record songs and jammed live to get the concert feel right.

It's very important to enjoy whatever you do in life.

Music was something I had put aside to make movies. Somehow I earlier felt there was only so much creative energy allotted to your life and only that much time to pursue your creativity. But I was wrong.

For me, to consciously seek unpredictable roles would be dangerous.

Every time you work with a new co-star, a whole new dynamic emerges.

To me, 'Bhaag Milkha Bhaag' is definitely a landmark. It has taught me so much.

'BMB' has opened up a world of possibilities. It has inspired me to believe that the really difficult things in life can be achieved by sheer application.

I basically like a bit more control. Even in my personal life, I need things to be done on time. If it's not done, I get impatient.

Difficulty does not deter me. In fact, I find challenges exciting.

I was a complete vagabond till the age of 20, when I got my first job as an assistant director with Pankaj Parashar.

One fear setting on filmmakers is that the audience no longer has any patience. They want things to constantly move.

I feel nervous before performing in live concerts, but it does not last more than five minutes.

I don't like people who smoke and have tattoos.

I'm anything but a small-town girl. I have big, big dreams, and I plan on making them happen.

I hope that others can turn their negative thoughts into positive thoughts and improve their own lives.

I was more of, like, into butterflies, insects, playing out in the yard, planting flowers. I was really into plants.

'In the Making' reveals the truth about 'being in the limelight' as a young celebrity.

I'm blessed with good genes, but I also love to look my best self.

My daughter knows she is loved. My daughter knows she has a mom, and I'm there, and I'm not worried about anything of what everyone else is worried about.

I'm just about social justice. Amen to women like me!

Not everyone's a perfect parent, but we do learn, and we grow from that. I'm not trying to be harsh on my family because it does make them sad to think back about how they used to be and some of their choices.

I think there's different parenting styles.

Women should have equal rights to men, every day.

By no means do we think, 'Oh, it's cool to be a teen mom.' I definitely don't think that it's cool.

We embrace all of our friends from every background.

I'm actually a pretty upfront, honest person; if there's anything, I just confront it.

There are a lot of layers to me.

I have a lot of passion and experience with aesthetic surgery and look forward to helping men and women all over the world.

I may speak my mind and come across as opinionated sometimes, but I would never want to harm anyone intentionally.

Oh, I definitely feel that women are equal to men. No doubt about that.

I'm pretty feminine.

I'm just pretty proud of myself.

I guess I'm a passionate person.

I think Trump's gonna be a great president. And Hillary's a great woman too.

I'm a business person.
