I have not intended to denigrate or hurt the beliefs of anyone through my art.

They can put me in a jungle. Still, I can create.

I only give expression to the instincts from my soul.

India is my motherland.

Ninety-nine percent of Indian people loved me and they still love me.

Mostly people are ignorant, what is the language of painting. You know, they're ignorant. It is so difficult to make them aware, but time will teach them.
