SS Rajamouli
Filmmaker presenting Don’t Trouble The Trouble
“I will tell you my secret. Just before shooting any film, I go and talk to the universe and say, ‘I know nothing.’ And I mean it with every cell of my body — that I know nothing about acting and nothing about the character. I don’t know anything. I am a part of you. You give it to me.”
