Pankaj on Shahid...
He stood by me through all kinds of problems
I'd push him towards what I was looking for but as far as the 'doing' part is concerned, I couldn't have shown him because he is so much better at it than I have ever been
There are times when I look up to him to take a decision..He is better than what I was at his age..
I would give him 95 out of 100 for completely submitting himself to me.
He needs to find a partner who is as committed and honest as him
Now that you are 18 and an adult, lets start getting to know each other as friends
If you are becoming successful do it on your own and if you are failing you go through it on your own so that you don't have anybody else to attribute it to or blame for it...
He is honest, hard-working, good-looking, cares for his family, is intelligent and has a very good sense of cinema.
People need to perceive him in a very different manner as he is very special
He has his own personality and his own way of approaching a film and that I think in the beginning I resisted. And then I thought it's a youngster's mind and one must listen to it..
He has huge potential as an actor, which in time the audience will see
I knew I had to write a script for a young actor who is keen to explore an acting oppurtunity, as well as find a story that interests the audience, is inspired by life and has drama
Shahid on Pankaj:
I have seen more and understood more than I have in the eight years of my career
We took a lot of decisions together and shared the outcome. That brought us together.
Honestly, I saw normalcy in my life for the first time when I started getting to know dad and becoming a part of his family
I became a man because of all the time I spent with dad..He wakes up every morning with an unbelievable passion and commitment towards everything he does..
I want to keep working hard every day and be committed to whatever I do..
