Life is bigger than cinema. Cinema is just a part of life, so I never take success or failure seriously.

Right from my childhood, I have believed in a Supreme Power. I dont know whether it has form, or it is formless. I am a high school dropout. How come life has given me so much? Its not my intelligence, its not my abilities. This understanding makes me scared even in success. I dont own my success. Neither do I own my failure.

Caste is a delicate issue. Its ubiquitous, and we are full of it. We should start to change things from individual level. But when you go to people and deny caste, they may not react favourably. I think if a decisive percentage of people, especially elites, start marrying out of their caste, we may see a casteless India in a generations time.

I dont believe in planning for things. I just want them to fall in place, unfold as they like. I never design things. I want films to choose me; I dont choose films.

History and social sciences were my interests. I was always interested in knowing how societies get organized, why there is rich and poor divide, why there are classes. I was never apolitical. I think we are all political in a way. Politics decides our day-to-day life.

Politics organizes our lives. We cant disregard it. Politics has lot of muck, lot of dirt. But that doesnt mean you have to be away from it. Its ubiquitous.

I have a huge fan following in Bellary, and when they met me, they told me about their problems. I have seen mining done without proper safety measures and not taking environmental protection into account.
