foreign
[Laughter]
[Music]
foreign
it's not just us fighting against male
dominations not like that I think the
whole that system it was so old and
fussy and quite silly money is the
biggest thing
money is not everything
I realize money is everything money can
buy you love also I can see
[Music]
thank you man for doing this with us
today thank you for inviting us do you
think it's the best time to be an actor
today I think this is the best time to
be in the industry this is the best
phase for the film industry itself I'm
looking at the
yeah bigger picture you know and whether
it be technical side of it the creative
side of it everything the diversity of
uh Cinema yeah you know whether it's in
the big screen or on Ott the shows and
seals so many more platforms are there
for us now yeah and part of that
Evolution I suppose is uh what we
personally as act as a experiencing yeah
you know it's more inclusive now yeah I
wish it had happened more earlier and I
hope it happens more because we are
still way behind compared to World
Cinema but let's celebrate whatever
little is happening but it should I
think it should happen more for
everybody not just 8th Century but
gender there's that I agree every space
we need to really open look at our life
and see how many different kinds of
people are there yeah and they should
just be brought into Cinema
together
questions
which is so amazing oh this is so lovely
yeah wow this also reminds me you know
when Francis McDonald won her Oscar uh
for three Billboards outside
which became the most Google words of
that year it's an inclusion Rider yeah
which means you know inclusion inclusion
Rider it's a provision that actors and
filmmakers can add to their contract
which makes the filmmakers bound to hire
people across uh yeah you know right
from gender to uh to color and to any
thing I mean everything which for you
does not seem doesn't come to your mind
right away you know the neglect in in
this Dark Shadows correct but that was
very right that that is what Cinema is
going but you know they have really done
it better than us you must you think so
of course they have been making films
which are not at all uh bound or
dependent on such Concepts
across the world Cinema I'm not just
talking about English films you watch
Iranian films you watch
any kind you know it is full they don't
have that kind of uh they're very
inclusive in that sense they are but you
think we and we are going to that video
we're Global in every other sense like
when I see bahubali especially look look
at our Graphics I mean I'm so proud I
know it is it's a technical thing but
there is Art in that also of course and
we have done it so well and then you
come and see a very kind of you know
um performance and story driven film on
Ott or something so we are scoring I
think on all fronts at this point I
agree but you think something like that
could be replicated in India as well and
inclusion right that do you think actors
would be open to add something like that
to their contract I don't think so as
yet
[Laughter]
it works differently they will say who
are you to tell us how to make it oh of
course
yeah it is
[Applause]
I think so seriously do you endorse it
why should I not endorse it hmm
[Music]
circumstances yeah
my channel
so I am no judge
of anyone yeah I have realized this is
okay
when I came
um
foreign
thank you
foreign
if you have an opportunity to work with
them they're basic nice good people they
give you love they take care of it the
family feeling is there yeah so for me
it was very emotional when I got the
call because you know though
suddenly you realize oh I like this you
know it's that kind of a thing yeah I
really like this so I had decided
foreign
so I didn't want to lose the opportunity
to be part of that yeah once in a while
film show the characters that female
actors get today is so different from
when you all started out I didn't
interview
recently and she told me he was time
have you all also gone through issues
like this when you all started out
um
foreign
[Music]
against male dominations not like that I
think the whole that system it was so
old and passy and quite silly you know
the way
I'm talking about the times before I
took my first break see the industry
I've seen changing in three different
times but the first was like band maker
heavy maker everything was something
else yeah but even then you had those
films which were which stood out and
which were very good like I think one of
my very important films in my career ish
yeah but then you had those kind of very
few directives yeah Ripper which is such
a beautiful film you feel so blessed to
be part of that trilogy yeah you know
the whole all three of them and then you
land the last one it's a blessing it's
it's you feel so humble yeah so those
films were there even then but not that
much it is just later house Cinema of it
you know at some point with great speed
it change it went really bad and then it
started rising and then you know you had
films like fancy
booking
so we went again to see the film to
celebrate that no booking is there so
they have to take out the film
but the film is packed yeah so Cinema
has really come sure suraji's films is
about family uh and the relationship
with family over the years has also
evolved and changed have we all were
with your parents might not be exactly
happy with your daughters and both your
daughters are in the public uh space how
is your equation really with them and do
you like speak to them about their
personal lives do like advise them my
mother never told me anything we could
not talk about anything today me and
masaba we thought we are friends yeah we
are very good friends but still I don't
ask her a few things and she will not
tell me a few things so that limit is
there for me it was very important right
from the beginning like you said from
whatever you have experienced uh you
want to correct that in life whatever
you thought was not okay so my first
thing I've always felt is I really
believe we must respect youngsters
just because other experiences
naturally Superior attitude
I have like always given them that
flight even when they used to appear for
the exams my only thing was I want to be
sure you have prepared for your exams
100 beyond that you get 30 40 I don't
care and they're very hard working girls
yeah they're very independent and strong
women and by the grace of God you know
they have turned out to be nice and they
are my friends we will be your friends
yeah we are crazy friends like we have
crazy time so that's that's what I
cherish very much in the relationship
lovely uh this is a completely an honor
for me to have a conversation with you I
can't wait to see which are in theater
I'm gonna pester everyone in the
marketing team as soon as possible thank
you so much thank you thank you thank
you so much
