Every once in a while as an actor, you do something that the kids really like.
For people to even think that I'd be considered or a good candidate for a supporting actress nomination is mind blowing to me.
I've never wanted an Oscar, although they are reassuring to an actor who doesn't know how really great he is.
I've been working every year since I started acting, and I got many awards before I won the Oscar for 'The Queen.'
It's a little bit silly to pit us all against each other as if we were running a race. Just think about the fact that Richard Burton never won an Oscar.
People say an Oscar validates your career. No, it doesn't. There's more good actors without Oscars than there are with Oscars.
As an actress, I am happy that people are offering me good roles and I am earning success critically and commercially.
I think I have been very lucky as far as my acting career goes.
After winning so many debut awards, I never thought I would win for 'Ishaqzaade.'
The biggest reward for any actor is to be recognised by the characters they play.
I think I have the finest body of work of any American actor.
When actors do anti-hero roles, they are critically acclaimed. When heroines do negative roles, they are sidelined from the industry.
