I shoot reality-based movies, and in actual locations, shooting them with a star is next to impossible.

All those pseudo-Hollywood movies set nowhere, with everybody good looking and having great physique - that's not working any more.

People always accuse me of making these dark, depressing movies. 'Why do you have to pick up on real issues? People are so exhausted and miserable.'

Chennai is the birthplace of a new language in cinema. The audiences here are the most evolved moviegoers to be found anywhere in India.

The censor boards are mere redundant forces conspiring to keep the 'bold' films out of reach of the audience.

My cards and flowers always got rejected on Valentines Day.
