I don't make the stereotypes, I just see them.

This is our most dangerous addiction - our addiction to things. For it is this addiction that underlies the materialism of our age. And nowhere is this addiction more apparent than in our addiction to money.

I don't need Hollywood. With or without them, I'll be fine. But I'll admit it would be nice to have them on board.
careers hollywood
I will never stop doing stand-up; that's my career, but I will do movies in Hollywood.

I DJ and I'm a harsh critic of DJs.

I do a lot of cultural material that's based on my traveling around the world. I basically just report what I've seen and where I've been.
couple thinking hands
I don't think Indian actors are good. A couple of them are, like Anupam Kher, but not many are there like him in the industry. There are thousand of actors and actresses in the industry, but you can count on hand how many of them are really good; the rest of them are just pretty faces.
self-worth self culture
Self-worth and financial worth become indistinguishable.
bollywood want
I don't want to be a part of any Bollywood movie.
