I think it’s important to have scaling challenge because there are players who I feel play ‘Dragon Age’ for the wonder, story and exploration but wouldn’t enjoy getting their butts handed to them.

The one negative to horror is that it’s always law of diminishing returns. When you go in the funhouse, the ride is never scary the second time. You will never have that pure experience as when you first watch it.

At home in Ghaziabad, everyone is a pure vegetarian. In fact, when I want to cook non-veg there, my mum shoos me out on the terrace where I have my cooking utensils. I’m told categorically that whatever non-veg or egg, etc., that I have to cook, I should do upstairs and not enter her kitchen at all.
Writing can be taken up at any point. But you need to remember that the arts are fundamentally unfair. Hard work and diligence won’t necessarily take you all the way. Talent, nepotism, influence, and pure luck play a huge part.

If you’re watching comedy movies, go back and check out the Marx Brothers in ‘Duck Soup,’ or Buster Keaton in ‘The General,’ or Laurel and Hardy or W.C. Fields or whatever – and see what pure talent really was, so that you can see where it came from, and then you can sort of gauge it from there.

I’m not claiming that football is the nation’s salvation in this area, but it’s one of them, one little thing that apparently has captured the imagination of a large sector of our society. But when football can’t be a relatively pure outlet, a fun thing, then it hurts itself.
It is not necessary to argue to those for whom I write that the two great needs of mankind, that all men may be lifted up into the light of the highest Christian civilization, are, first, a pure, spiritual Christianity, and second, civil liberty.
I remember what it was like to be doing ‘Lost’ and how creatively immersive it was. I just couldn’t really engage on anything else, other than ‘Lost;’ I was just thinking about it all the time, and then there was just the pure workload, the 70- or 80-hour weeks.
Fans love the image that they see on-screen. They simply admire you for whatever they see on TV shows without even knowing you as a person. That’s such a pure thing. I’m thankful for the love they have showered on me.
‘Napoleon’ is pure cinema, and cinema was designed for sharing.
