It's Only At This Age That I

It's Only At This Age That I Can Say The Word 'art' Without Flinching.

My Family Is Almost Exactly Like The One In 'monsoon Wedding'. We Are Very Open, Fairly Liberal, Loud People.

I Am An Independent Film-maker First And Foremost. I Have Always Cut My Own Cloth.

Every Film Is A Political Act; It's How You See The World.

It Gave Me A Lot Of Pleasure And Pride That 90 Percent Of The Crew For 'monsoon Wedding,' And Most Of My Film, Are Women. We Get The Work Done, You Know, Much Lesser Play Of Ego... And I Really Believe In Harmony, I Believe In Working In A Spirit Of Egolessness And That The Film Is Bigger Than All Of Us.
