With time, everything changes, and there is nothing wrong in that.
Hema Malini
Shashi Kapoor and Amitabh Bachchan were good dancers.
'TMOK' is about the very interesting journey of a girl in a different situation, and different stories blend into one film. The film has a lot of emotional depth, and I am sure people will like it.
I would even love to do a Bengali film if a good offer is made to me.
Huge crowds, numbering in lakhs, come to see me wherever I go.
Spirituality is a great bent of mind. It gives peace and hope to me.
I have done work for everyone because all are Brijwasi.
I am glad that I am able to do everything. It's tough because you have to look after the house, family, children, acting, dance, and production.
Every art form has its own beauty, but blending it with other forms in separate ways is okay.
For any cultural performance involving me, the response from Kolkata is the most critical. If I pass here, I will pass elsewhere.
When my children were young, I set my routine according to their needs.
I had a cordial relationship with all my heroes - some, like Jeetendra or Shatrughan Sinha, are very funny. Amitabh, on the other hand, was more serious, more professional.
I want to impart my dance, my music: I want to make an institute and teach children.
We should train kids in the music and dance of our legends. That's how we can keep the traditions alive.
Stray cattle roam every lane and alley, but we are building cow shelters and trying to resolve the problem.
I want to work on improving the number of schools for girls and ensuring there are proper and clean toilets so girls are encouraged to come to school. I am told this is a major reason for girls dropping out of schools.
It is because of the blessing of Lord Ganesha that the event has become so popular among Puneites. Kalmadiji also plays a very important role in the growth of the Pune Festival. It is because of him that we are able to enthrall the audience with good performances.
Darian is a Greek name, and my grandson is definitely going to be a Greek God, just like his grandfather.
Some restrictions should be imposed on population. First of all, each city should have certain population, certain limit.
I was never the kind to throw parties for my birthday. I remember how embarrassed I used to be when they'd make me cut a cake on the sets, and the unit would sing 'Happy Birthday.'
I lead a very disciplined life.
I have always followed my passion to dance religiously. And that keeps me agile and youthful at heart.
In my constituency, everyone loves Modiji, and it will convert into votes.
I cannot be expected to behave like a film star when I have decided to serve my people. They have voted for me with expectations, and I cannot take them for granted.
I think I have aged gracefully.
I am still attached to my wedding sari and preserve it with care. There are so many little things I have kept as loving mementos of my father and mother.
I am a dancer at heart.
I don't care what people think about the way I act.
People are dying to get a National Award... it's a national reputation.
Often I sit in the lawn and have my morning cuppa amidst the twittering of rare birds.
I was very active during both my pregnancies.
Anybody cannot be a dancer. A dancer must have a certain posture, gestures, height, behaviour.
When my mother was around, she would insist on celebrating my birthdays.
Pure dance form is not dying.
Among my classical dances, I loved my 'Mrig Trishna' dance. People should try that on stage. I don't know why they don't. It's beautifully written.
When I was at the top, my mother was helping other girls. I thought it was a beautiful gesture and that I should continue it in her name.
Money and other tangibles will come and go; they shouldn't be the foundation of your marriage.
1 crore is not a small amount. I would never ask for such an amount without knowing the role.
Yes, I used to miss my childhood, but I did get a chance to relive it through Esha and Ahaana.
I did a number of films with Amitabh. He was a wonderful costar - totally different from others.
'Sholay' can and should never be remade. It is a classic, just like 'Mughal-e-Azam.' The magic which the movie created at that time cannot be repeated.
I don't have any high aims or goals, but I hope to continue my journey of multi-tasking as I have been doing so far as an actor, dancer, and also serving people of the nation.
It's not that people will vote for me only because I am a Bollywood star.
People assume that they will retire at 60 and die when they are 70. If you can think positive, live a healthy life, listen to your body and follow a regime, then you can live for 100 years, healthy and happy.
I just want my daughters and their families to be happy.
I am no more young. So there is no harm in playing an elderly role.
Filmmaking is a gamble.
Jayalalithaaji was not just a politician: she was the messiah of the masses.
I have great admiration for Atal Bihari Vajapyee.
I am joining BJP, as I feel very close to its ideology.
