"He (his father, Amitabh Bachchan) always treated me as equal.Although we knew that we weren't but
his behavior towards my sister and I was always the same. Everyone knows that fathers and daughters
share and special bond and sons and mothers share a special bond. So for my father my sister was
always the apple of his eye but I was always his friend and that's something I hope I can incorporate
with Aaradhya."
"There is one common thing in superstars -- enthusiasm and humility towards their work. Off sets they
are big stars for others and they carry themselves the way they want to. When they are working they are
not stars. On sets they are like making the best film and giving their best."
"Her (Aishwarya's) professionalism and dedication is unquestionable. As a mother (of Aaradhya) she is
superb...she is a super mom. As a co-star, I have always loved working with her. It is a pleasure."
"As her parents, Aishwarya and I want our child to be happy and healthy. I was guarded from all this
(media attention and showbiz world). The trade magazine and all was banned in my house. The first
time I read a film magazine was when I was 18."
"I understand that as public figures, our lives will always be under the microscope. Once I leave my
house, I am public property. But there is a part of my life as a son, husband and father which is private.
I wouldn't like the media to cross that line."
"It is part of my duty as an actor to express an opinion. It’s all part of the creative process and very
normal. If I have a difference of opinion, I will discuss it with the team. If I don’t tell the team I won’t
be fair to the team. It’s good to have creative differences, sit and discuss them in the open and resolve
them then and there. I have no ego to do it in my way. I could be wrong but if I feel strongly then I
need my director to convince me."
"My mother is biased because she is my mom but my biggest critic would be my father, as he has the
ability to break down my performance and explain what he liked and didn’t like. He also tells me where
he feels there’s room for improvement and I love that."
"All that I have gone through in life till now — the pain, the struggle and the happiness was necessary
for me to now move forward positively. One must experience all the high and lows, happiness and
sadness to grow in life or it would be terribly boring. You have to have a bit of everything — that’s what
makes life so exciting!"
"I don’t wish for things. I make them happen!"
"I wore my father's shoes when I was just 11 and since then he has always been a buddy and his idea
of parenting was and he said this to me at a very young age. He said I will never hide anything from
you. I will incorporate you in all your decisions and I will always ask you my opinion but your job is to
make sure your opinion is something I can listen to."
"He (his father, Amitabh Bachchan) always treated me as equal.Although we knew that we weren't but
his behavior towards my sister and I was always the same. Everyone knows that fathers and daughters
share and special bond and sons and mothers share a special bond. So for my father my sister was
always the apple of his eye but I was always his friend and that's something I hope I can incorporate
with Aaradhya."
"I believe she is and to me she is the most beautiful thing on earth. I see myself in the mirror every
day and it is a horrific sight. So I am not competing, I can't. The reason why we got together wasn't
cosmetic. She is one of the most down to earth.... normal people you will ever meet. She hasn't
married me because I am a film star or I am a Bachchan and I haven't married her because she is
the most beautiful woman on earth or one of the biggest stars on earth, so that never comes in the
equation."
