Contrary to popular perception, I don’t think you are selfish — especially considering the number of people you have given a break to.
The term “giving a break” can only be used if I did the film for the sake of the person. But if I used him/her for the sake of the film, then that can’t be called “giving a break”. To make a film and use whoever I think will best enhance it, is doing it for gain — so I am definitely selfish.
Will you ever make a film on politics?
Most of the films I made were on politics. Company was about politics in the underworld. Sarkar was about politics in the family. But yes, some day I will make a film on the politics of politicians too.

I have an academic interest in the psychological deficiencies of specimens like you.
