People are often shy to acknowledge that they are Bengalis. They somehow take pride in saying that they cannot speak or read the language.

I would say the film world has stopped operating as one. We have divided it into Hindi movies, Bengali movies, Tamil movies and so on. Earlier, there was only one channel and we all knew what was going on. Today, it is hard to keep track of programmes due to the advent of regional channels.

My fans know me and love me the way I am. I dont want to lie to my fans.

Fathers always play mahagurus to their children, and I am no exception.

Im not a person who wants to die with my shoes on. I do not think I can be immortal. Maybe my deeds will be immortal. Not me.

I like Hrithik Roshan and Shahid Kapoor. They are amazing and very hard working when it comes to dance.

It's no use just by shouting out that it is bad or it's good. If someone feels bad about something, they should go and support the reins themselves.

I am evergreen, and with every passing day, I am becoming younger.

My son is a better dancer than me. I always try to encourage him in his endeavours.

I would like to produce films, but I feel I am an unsuccessful producer. Thats the fact.

I came into the industry as an actor. And moved on to become a star with the help of my dancing skills.
