Hollywood big shot 'Avatar’ director James Cameron was in New Delhi last week to attend “India Today Conclave 2010” on the theme ‘New Decade: Great Expectations’ organized by The India Today Group.
She said: “Everyone is a commodity, exactly replaced by the next talented non-name. If a formula works, then it’s flogged to death, new ideas are dammed. Mediocre products will continue to be made unless someone stands up and says- I will not do it, and then be prepared for a fall out- which in the case of an actor I can say is lesser endorsements, lesser PR, lesser visibility and so called "industry friends".
Asin is also proud of the fact that she is the only Indian actress to have met the internationally acclaimed Oscar winning Avatar director James Cameron at the conclave and later for a discussion on movies in the evening followed by dinner. It was Aamir Khan’s birthday and a huge chocolate cake was cut.
Later James Cameron and Aamir joined Asin and Ranbir for the gala dinner that was held after the summit where the "Titanic, Avatar" director appreciated Asin for her vision.
Asin also said "Change, according to me, is not just brought about by the youth, but by anyone. She said it may not be a revolution, but just a small change" and went on to cite a personal example to elucidate this further. "I was born into a traditional and orthodox Kerala Catholic family and I should have been named after my grandmother. But my parents thought out of the box, and named me Asin, which means without sin," she says. To live up to this name is what she strives for everyday."
If Avatar James directs Amir Khan, the film will be most favourable for all
