S. S. Rajamouli’s 5 most popular quotes
- I did work with Ajay Devgn and Kajol, who did the voiceover in ‘Makkhi’. I wanted a couple with easily identifiable voices but with an image for being family-oriented. Ajay and Kajol fitted the bill. You get a good feel about them.
- I don’t believe in luck. Everything is our doing or undoing. If something doesn’t come out right, then as a director, you have to take full responsibility. You can’t just say, ‘No, I gave this job to the music supervisor. They promised me they would do it, and they didn’t do it.’ You can’t blame anyone else.
- Creating is one thing; telling the story is one thing. I see myself more as a storyteller than a story creator.
- I am always in self-doubt… every moment of my filmmaking. I am supremely confident when the story is being written and everything is in our head. But the moment we get into the filmmaking, I start doubting myself – from the camera angle to the re-recording to getting the actors to do their shots.
- People like to see Ravi Teja as a vibrant, massy character. We needed to do something more. So I gave him the extra flavour of the cop character and high emotions. And Ravi did a good job.
