“I am at home in many cultures. I live actively in three continents and I've done that for most of my life, so I just make films as I see the world, and that happens to speak to people. I do things that I want to do.”

It gave me a lot of pleasure and pride that 90 percent of the crew for 'Monsoon Wedding, ' and most of my film, are women. We get the work done, you know, much lesser play of ego... And I really believe in harmony, I believe in working in a spirit of egolessness and that the film is bigger than all of us.
New York City is home to so many people from so many places and the uniqueness of it is that you never feel a foreigner. English is almost hardly ever heard in the subway. In fact, it's weird.
Creative freedom is an imperative for me, but it doesn't really exist in a Hollywood game.
My family is almost exactly like the one in 'Monsoon Wedding'. We are very open, fairly liberal, loud people.
