मेरा बचपन बेहद अकेलापन में बीता। मुझे डिस्लेक्सिया था और बहुत से बच्चे मेरा मज़ाक उड़ाया करते थे। उस अनुभव ने मुझे अंदर से मज़बूती दी, क्योंकि आप चुपचाप उपहास सहना सीख जाते हैं।

My childhood was extremely lonely. I was dyslexic and lots of kids make fun of me. That experience made me tough inside, because you learn to quietly accept ridicule.

मैं खुद से बहुत उम्मीदें रखता हूँ। मैं सीखना चाहता हूँ। मैं चुपचाप हाथ पर हाथ धरे नहीं बैठ सकता। मुझे चुनौतियाँ पसंद हैं, इसलिए मैं खुद अपने लिए कई चुनौतियाँ खड़ी करता रहता हूँ।

I demand a lot of myself. I want to learn. I can't sit back. I like a challenge, so I create a lot of challenges for myself.

मैं बस ज़िंदगी को जीता हूँ... ज़िंदगी को पूरी तरह महसूस करता हूँ।

I just eat life... I engage in life.

हर इंसान को खुद तय करना होता है कि उसके लिए क्या सच है और क्या असली।

Individuals have to decide what is true and real for them.

जब मैं करीब सात साल का था, तो मुझे डिस्लेक्सिया (पठन अक्षमता) घोषित कर दिया गया था। मैं जो पढ़ रहा होता, उस पर ध्यान केंद्रित करने की कोशिश करता, लेकिन जैसे ही पन्ने के अंत तक पहुँचता, मुझे कुछ भी याद नहीं रहता था। मेरा दिमाग सुन्न हो जाता, मैं बेचैन, घबराया हुआ, ऊब महसूस करता, निराश और खुद को बेवकूफ समझता। मुझे गुस्सा आता। पढ़ाई करते वक्त सचमुच मेरे पैरों में दर्द होने लगता था। मेरा सिर फटने लगता था। स्कूल के पूरे समय और अपने करियर की शुरुआत तक, मुझे ऐसा लगता था जैसे मेरे पास कोई राज़ है। जब मैं किसी नए स्कूल में जाता, तो नहीं चाहता था कि दूसरे बच्चों को मेरी इस सीखने की असमर्थता के बारे में पता चले, लेकिन फिर मुझे उपचारात्मक पठन (रेमेडियल रीडिंग) के लिए भेज दिया जाता था।

When I was about 7 years old, I had been labeled dyslexic. I'd try to concentrate on what I was reading, then I'd get to the end of the page and have very little memory of anything I'd read. I would go blank, feel anxious, nervous, bored, frustrated, dumb. I would get angry. My legs would actually hurt when I was studying. My head ached. All through school and well into my career, I felt like I had a secret. When I'd go to a new school, I wouldn't want the other kids to know about my learning disability, but then I'd be sent off to remedial reading.

बचपन में, जब मैं किसी पहाड़ की चोच या ढलान के किनारे पर पहुँचता था, तो मेरा वहाँ से कूद जाने का मन करता था। मैं खुद को मारना नहीं चाहता था। मैं बस उड़ना चाहता था।

As a kid, when I got to the edge of a cliff I wanted to jump off. I didn't want to kill myself. I wanted to fly.

मैं उन लोगों से बिल्कुल इत्तेफाक नहीं रखता जो सोचते हैं कि आप जीतने से ज्यादा हार खाने या मार खाने से सीखते हैं।

I disagree with people who think you learn more from getting beat up than you do from winning.

मैंने कभी भी पैसों के लिए काम नहीं किया, कभी भी नहीं। अगर आपके फैसले फिल्मों की कमाई पर आधारित हों और फिल्म अच्छा प्रदर्शन न करे, तो इसका मतलब क्या रह जाता है? आपके हाथ कुछ नहीं बचता।

I've never done work for money, ever. If your choices are based on grosses and the film doesn't do well, what does that mean? It leaves you with nothing.

मैं 'सब कुछ या कुछ नहीं' वाला इंसान हूँ, और जब मुझे किसी चीज़ में दिलचस्पी हो जाती है, तो मैं अपना सौ प्रतिशत झोंक देता हूँ।

I'm an all-or-nothing kind of person, and when I become interested in something, I give it my all.

I'm an all-or-nothing kind of person, and when I become interested in something, I give it my all.

मुझे इस बात की कोई परवाह नहीं कि आप मेरे बारे में कोई घटिया या बुरी बात छापते हैं। अगर वह सच है, तो ठीक है। मुझे कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ता। बस यह सुनिश्चित कर लेना कि वह सच हो।

I don't care if you print something nasty about me. If it's true, fine. I don't care. But just make sure it's the truth.

I don't care if you print something nasty about me. If it's true, fine. I don't care. But just make sure it's the truth.

एक पुरुष के रूप में, दार्शनिक तौर पर, जब आप सम्मान और ईमानदारी की बात करते हैं, तो मैं वैसे ही अपनी ज़िंदगी जीना चाहता हूँ। इस बात ने मुझे अंदर तक झकझोर दिया था।

For me as a man, philosophically, when you talk about honor and integrity, that’s the way I want to live my life. It moved me.

मैं एक अच्छा श्रोता हूँ। मुझे लगता है कि यह सबसे महत्वपूर्ण खूबी है। मैं हमेशा से ऐसा ही रहा हूँ। ऐसा नहीं है कि मैं सबकी सलाह मान ही लेता हूँ, लेकिन आपको उसे सुनना चाहिए और अपना खुद का फैसला लेने की हिम्मत रखनी चाहिए। फिर मैं बस उसमें जुट जाता हूँ।

I'm a good listener. I think it's the one characteristic that's most important. I've always been that way. Not that I take all the advice, but you've got to listen to it and have the courage to make your own decision. Then I just go for it.

मुझे तो ऐसा लगता है कि अगर हमारी भाषा में थोड़ी भी समझदारी होती, तो 'भरोसा' (ट्रस्ट) चार अक्षरों का नहीं, बल्कि कोई गाली जैसा शब्द होता।

It seems to me that if there were any logic to our language, trust would be a four letter word.

रासायनिक असंतुलन (केमिकल इंबैलेंस) जैसी कोई चीज़ नहीं होती।

There is no such thing as a chemical imbalance.

क्या मैं गलतियाँ करता हूँ? हाँ, बिल्कुल।

Do I make mistakes? Yeah.

मैं अपनी ज़िंदगी का शेड्यूल बनाने में, किसी दृश्य के लिए समय तय करने में, और यह जानने के लिए खुद को तैयार करने में बहुत माहिर हो गया हूँ कि ऊर्जा कब बचाकर रखनी है, कब उसका इस्तेमाल करना है, कब पूरी ताकत झोंक देनी है और इसके लिए अपने अंदर कितनी ऊर्जा बचाकर रखनी है। आपको इन सब बातों के बारे में सोचना पड़ता है, क्योंकि यह एक लंबी सहनशक्ति का खेल है।

I've gotten very good at scheduling my life, scheduling the scene and preparing myself for knowing, saving the energy, consuming the energy, knowing when to go for it and having the available reserves to be able to do that. You have to think about that, because it's endurance.

मैं लालची नहीं हूँ। मुझे बस मेरा हिस्सा चाहिए।

I'm not greedy. I just want my half.

I'm not greedy. I just want my half.

मैं समुराई को देखता हूँ क्योंकि वे अपने समय के कलाकार थे। बुशिडो (समुराई का मार्ग) पढ़ते समय जिस बात ने मुझे सबसे ज्यादा प्रभावित किया, वह थी करुणा। 'अगर वहाँ मदद के लिए कोई नहीं है, तो जाओ और किसी ऐसे व्यक्ति को ढूँढो जिसे तुम्हारी मदद की ज़रूरत हो।' इस बात ने मेरे दिल को छू लिया, क्योंकि मैं अपनी ज़िंदगी इसी तरह जीने की कोशिश करता हूँ।

I look at the Samurai because they were the artists of their time. What I think struck me when I read Bushido is compassion. 'If there's no one there to help, go out and find someone to help.' That hit me, because I try to lead my life like that.

मैंने जो फैसले लिए, उन्हें लेकर मेरा दिल साफ़ है और मैं खुश हूँ। आप जानते ही हैं, मैं सचमुच बहुत खुश हूँ।

I feel good about the decisions that I made and I'm happy. You know, I'm really happy.

हर किसी को एक दिन मरना ही है, सैली। असली बात यह है कि शान से मरे इंसान।

Everybody dies, Sally. The thing is to die well.

Everybody dies, Sally. The thing is to die well.

अपने सपनों में भी, मैं एक ऐसा मूर्ख हूँ जो यह जानता है कि वह अभी-अभी हकीकत में जागने वाला है।

Even in my dreams, I’m an idiot who knows he’s about to wake up to reality.

पिता बनने का वह पल मैं कभी नहीं भूल सकता। उसे बयां करना मुश्किल है—उस स्तर की ज़िम्मेदारी, इतनी खुशी देने की चाह, और वह स्पष्टता: इससे बढ़कर कुछ भी महत्वपूर्ण नहीं है।

I'll never forget the moment I became a dad. It's hard to describe-that level of responsibility, the desire to give such joy, the clarity: Nothing is more important than this.

उनमें से अच्छी खुशबू आती है। वे खूबसूरत दिखती हैं। मुझे औरतें बहुत पसंद हैं। सच में।

They smell good. They look pretty. I love women. I do.

मुझे बच्चे बहुत पसंद हैं। मैं खुद भी कभी बच्चा था।

यह जगजाहिर है कि मैं साइंटोलॉजी का अनुयायी हूँ, और इसी ने मुझे अपने जीवन में वह आंतरिक शांति पाने में मदद की है। इसने मुझे बहुत स्थिरता दी है और ऐसे तरीके दिए हैं जिनका मैं इस्तेमाल करता हूँ।

It's well known I'm a Scientologist, and that has helped me to find that inner peace in my life and it's something that has given me great stability and tools that I use.

अभिनय का सबसे रोमांचक हिस्सा, इसे कैसे समझाऊँ, वे पल होते हैं जब आप खुद को ही हैरान कर देते हैं।

The exciting part of acting, I don't know how else to explain it, are those moments when you surprise yourself.

मैं कोई ताकत पाने के लिए अभिनेता नहीं बना था, लेकिन इत्तेफाक से मेरे पास यह है और इसलिए मेरे सामने ढेरों अवसर आते हैं।

I didn't become an actor to have power, but it just happens that I have it and so I have a lot of opportunities.

I didn't become an actor to have power, but it just happens that I have it and so I have a lot of opportunities.

भावनाएं उमड़ पड़ती हैं। आप कोशिश करते हैं कि चीज़ें न बिगड़ें, लेकिन आप ऐसी स्थितियों से गुजरते हैं जिन पर आपका बस नहीं चलता।

Emotions kick up. You try not to kick things up, but you go through things you can't help.

मुझे अपने ध्यान को केंद्रित करने के लिए खुद को प्रशिक्षित करना पड़ा। मैं बहुत ज़्यादा विजुअल हो गया और जो कुछ पढ़ता था, उसे समझने के लिए मानसिक छवियां बनाना सीख गया।

I had to train myself to focus my attention. I became very visual and learned how to create mental images in order to comprehend what I read.

लेकिन मेरे दोस्त मेरे लिए खुश हैं। जो लोग मुझे जानते हैं, वे खुश हैं। मेरी माँ खुश हैं। मेरा परिवार खुश है।

But my friends are happy for me. The people who know me are happy. My mom is happy. My family is happy.

But my friends are happy for me. The people who know me are happy. My mom is happy. My family is happy.

फिल्म निर्माण के बारे में खास बात यह है कि मैं अपना सब कुछ इसमें झोंक देता हूँ, इसीलिए मैं इतनी मेहनत करता हूँ। मैं हमेशा नए कलाकारों से कहता हूँ कि कमान अपने हाथ में लो। यह इतना मुश्किल नहीं है। अपने चेक खुद साइन करो, ज़िम्मेदार बनो।

The thing about film-making is I give it everything, that's why I work so hard. I always tell young actors to take charge. It's not that hard. Sign your own cheques, be responsible.

पुरस्कार बहुत शानदार चीज़ें हैं। मैं कई बार नामांकित हुआ हूँ और मैंने कई पुरस्कार जीते भी हैं। लेकिन मेरा सफर उस तरफ नहीं है। अगर ऐसा होता है, तो यह बहुत मजेदार होगा। अगर नहीं भी होता है, तब भी यह सफर बेहद शानदार रहा है।

Awards are wonderful. I've been nominated many times and I've won many awards. But my journey is not towards that. If it happens it will be a blast. If it doesn't, it's still been a blast.

دوسروں کے عقائد کا میں احترام کرتا ہوں۔ میری اپنی زندگی کا مقصد یہ تلاش کرنا ہے کہ میں چیزیں کیسے بہتر طریقے سے کر سکتا ہوں، چاہے ایک اچھا انسان بننا ہو، ایک بہتر باپ بننا ہو یا خود کو بہتر بنانے کے راستے تلاش کرنا ہوں۔

I have respect for what other people believe. What I believe in my own life is that it's a search for how I can do things better, whether it's being a better man or a better father or finding ways for myself to improve.

मुझे एडवेंचर फिल्में बहुत पसंद हैं, बस एक्शन एडवेंचर फिल्में। यह शुद्ध सिनेमा है जिसमें आप पूरी तरह खो जाते हैं। मेरे लिए यह एक चुनौती है - मैं दर्शकों को वह रोमांच और मनोरंजन देना चाहता ہوں۔

I love adventure movies, I just love action adventure films. It's pure cinema and you go in and you're lost to it. To me, it's that challenge - I want to give an audience that ride, that entertainment.

मैं हमेशा अपनी मां और बहनों के करीब रहा हूं। मैं हमेशा से एक पिता और पति बनना चाहता था।

I'm always around my mother and sisters. I always wanted to be a father, a husband.

I'm always around my mother and sisters. I always wanted to be a father, a husband.

मैं बस लोगों की मदद करना चाहता हूँ। मैं एक मददगार इंसान हूँ। मिसाल के तौर पर, मैंने खुद सैकड़ों लोगों को नशा छोड़ने में मदद की है। साइंटोलॉजी में हमारे पास दुनिया का एकमात्र सफल नशा मुक्ति कार्यक्रम है। इसे 'नारकोनोन' कहा जाता है।

I just want to help people. I'm a helper. For instance, I myself have helped hundreds of people get off drugs. In Scientology, we have the only successful drug rehabilitation program in the world. It's called Narconon.

मुझे याद है कि मैं अपने पिता को देखकर उन्हें समझने की कोशिश करता था। मैं उन्हें यूं ही नजरअंदाज नहीं करना चाहता था। वह भटके हुए थे। मैं यह तो नहीं कह सकता कि वह उस स्थिति में क्यों और कैसे पहुंचे - वह उनका अपना सफर था। मैं बस इतना कह सकता हूँ कि वह जिंदगी के बोझ तले दब गए थे... मेरी मां ने मूल रूप से सारा काम किया, और फिर वे अलग हो गए जिसके बाद मैंने उन्हें लंबे समय तक नहीं देखा। उन्होंने परिवार की आर्थिक या आध्यात्मिक रूप से मदद करने की कोशिश नहीं की, और मैं उस अफरा-तफरी के परिणामों के साथ जीता रहा।

I remember looking at my dad and wanting to understand him. I didn't want to just write the guy off. He was lost. I can't speak specifically in terms of why and how he got to where he was - that was his journey. All I can tell you is, he was overwhelmed by life... My mother basically did all the work, and then they got separated and I didn't see him for a long time. He didn't try to help the family financially or spiritually, and I lived with the effects of the chaos.

जब मैं काम करता हूँ, तो बहुत मेहनत से करता हूँ। इसलिए मैं ऐसे लोगों के साथ काम करना पसंद करता हूँ जिनमें काम के प्रति वैसी ही लगन हो। और मैं हर किसी से इसी बात की उम्मीद रखता हूँ। निर्देशक से लेकर मेरी पूरी क्रू टीम तक।

When I work, I work very hard. So I look to work with people who have that level of dedication. And I depend on that from everyone. From the director to my crews that I work with.

मैंने अपनी जिंदगी ऐसे जी है: मैं कभी सेट पर लेट नहीं हुआ। मैं ऐसी फिल्में बनाता हूँ जिन पर मुझे यकीन होता है। जो काम मुझे पसंद है, उसे करने का मौका मिलना मेरे लिए सौभाग्य की बात है।

Here's how I've lived my life: I've never been late to a set. I make films I believe in. I feel privileged to be able to do what I love.

Here's how I've lived my life: I've never been late to a set. I make films I believe in. I feel privileged to be able to do what I love.

मैंने अब ज्यादा शांत रहना सीख लिया है। हर कोई अपने काम में दबाव महसूस करता है, शायद मेरा दबाव थोड़ा अलग है क्योंकि दिन के समय में वह सब कुछ पूरा करने के लिए समय कम पड़ जाता है जो मैं करना चाहता हूँ।

I've learned to relax more. Everybody feels pressure in what they do, maybe mine is just a little different because there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day to accomplish what I want to.

I've learned to relax more. Everybody feels pressure in what they do, maybe mine is just a little different because there doesn't seem to be enough hours in the day to accomplish what I want to.

सच कहूं, तो मैं एक पल में जाने के लिए तैयार हूँ। अंतरिक्ष में जाने वाला पहला अभिनेता मैं बनना चाहूंगा और मुझे यह बहुत पसंद आएगा।

Seriously, I would go in a second. I'd be the first actor in space and I'd love to do it.

किसने अपने अंडरवियर में डांस नहीं किया है?

Who hasn't danced in their underwear?

एक युवा अभिनेता के रूप में, लोग यह तय करने की कोशिश कर रहे थे कि मैं कौन हूँ, इससे पहले कि मैं खुद अपने बारे में जान पाता। लेकिन मुझे आज भी याद है कि मैंने सोचा था, "मुझे यह काम करना बहुत पसंद है, और मैं उम्मीद करता हूँ कि मैं इसे हमेशा कर पाऊंगा।"

As a young actor, people were trying to define who I was before I really knew that for myself. But I still remember thinking, "This is what I love doing, and I hope I'm going to be able to do it forever."

स्टेनली कुब्रिक दर्शकों के दिलों-दिमाग पर छा जाने में माहिर थे। उनकी इस बात में बहुत दिलचस्पी थी कि 'मैं सिर्फ एक कैमरे के जरिए यह बात कैसे कह सकता हूँ?'

Stanley Kubrick was brilliant at getting under the audience's skin. He was very interested in the idea of, 'How can I tell this with just a camera?'

मेरे मूल्य हमेशा से एक जैसे रहे हैं। मेरे लिए परिवार हमेशा से महत्वपूर्ण रहा है। जब मैं शूटिंग करता हूँ, तो सब साथ होते हैं।

I've always had the same values. Family for me has always been important. When I shoot, everybody comes.

आज लोग कुछ भी कह सकते हैं। अचानक वो बात अफवाहों का हिस्सा बन जाती है, फिर बढ़ती है और किसी तरह सच बन जाती है, और तब आप कहते हैं, यह क्या है? भई, आप मुझसे पूछते क्यों नहीं?

Today, people can say anything they want. Suddenly it gets in the rumor mill and then it evolves and then somehow it becomes fact and you say, What is this? You know, why don't you ask me?

मेरी जिंदगी बहुत दिलचस्प रही है। इन जटिलताओं से निपटने के अलग-अलग तरीके हैं। मैं एक पिता, एक निर्माता और एक अभिनेता के रूप में जिम्मेदारियां उठाने के लिए तैयार हूँ; और मुझे इसमें आनंद आता है। मैं हमेशा से बदलता, विकसित होता और आगे बढ़ता रहा हूँ। सत्ता का कोई ऐसा शिखर नहीं है जहाँ आप बैठकर आराम कर सकें।

I've had a very interesting life. There are ways of handling the complexities. I'm willing to take on the responsibilities as a father, as a producer, as an actor; and I enjoy that. I've always been changing and evolving and growing. There's no pinnacle of power where you can sit back and relax.

क्या आप जानते हैं? मुझे यकीन है कि सड़क पर नशीले पदार्थों के तस्कर भी किसी तरह पैसे कमा रहे हैं। मैं इसकी तुलना उसी से करता हूँ। बात यह है कि आपको यह समझना होगा कि मनोचिकित्सा (साइकाइट्री) के पीछे कोई विज्ञान नहीं है। और यह नाटक करना कि इसके पीछे कोई विज्ञान है, एक अपराध है।

You know what? I’m sure drug dealers on the street, in some way, they are making money. That’s what I equate it to. Here is the thing: you have to understand, with psychiatry, there is no science behind it. And to pretend that there is a science behind it is criminal

हाँ, बिल्कुल। क्या आप सच में इतने अहंकारी हैं कि यह मानते हैं कि इस ब्रह्मांड में हम अकेले हैं? लाखों तारे हैं, और क्या हम ही एकमात्र जीवित प्राणी हैं? नहीं, वहाँ बाहर बहुत सी चीजें हैं, बस हम नहीं जानते।

Yes, of course. Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe? Millions of stars, and we're supposed to be the only living creatures? No, there are many things out there, we just don't know.

Yes, of course. Are you really so arrogant as to believe we are alone in this universe? Millions of stars, and we're supposed to be the only living creatures? No, there are many things out there, we just don't know.

मुझे इससे कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ता कि कोई क्या मानता है। मुझे इस बात से कोई मतलब नहीं कि उनकी राष्ट्रीयता क्या है। लेकिन अगर कोई नशा छोड़ना चाहता है, तो मैं उसकी मदद कर सकता हूँ। अगर कोई पढ़ना लिखना सीखना चाहता है, तो मैं उसकी मदद कर सकता हूँ। अगर कोई अब अपराधी नहीं रहना चाहता, तो मैं उसे ऐसे तौर-तरीके दे सकता हूँ जो उसकी जिंदगी को बेहतर बना सकें।

I don't care what someone believes. I don't care what nationality they are. But if someone wants to get off drugs, I can help them. If someone wants to learn how to read, I can help them. If someone doesn't want to be a criminal anymore, I can give them tools that can better their life.

मुझे ऐसे लोगों के साथ काम करना पसंद है जिनके साथ समय बिताना मुझे अच्छा लगता है, जिनका मैं सम्मान करता हूँ जो वाकई बहुत समझदार और प्रतिभाशाली हैं, और जिनके साथ मिलकर हम समस्याओं को सुलझा सकते हैं।

I like to work with people that I like hanging out with, that I admire, that are really smart and talented, and we can problem solve together.

मैं जीवन में विश्वास रखता हूँ। मैं जानता हूँ कि जिंदगी सीधे आपके दिल पर वार करती है और इससे कोई फर्क नहीं पड़ता कि आप एक अभिनेता हैं, फिल्म निर्माता हैं या सड़क पर चलने वाले आम इंसान, जिंदगी आप पर प्रहार करती है। साइंटोलॉजी मुझे इन सब चीजों से निपटने, अपनी जिंदगी का बेहतर आनंद लेने और समाज में अधिक योगदान देने के साधन देती है।

I believe in life. I know that life comes in at your heart and it doesn't matter if you're an actor, a filmmaker or a gentleman on the street, it comes at you. What Scientology gives me is the tools to deal with that, to better enjoy my life and to be able to contribute more.

एक साइंटोलॉजिस्ट होने के नाते, जब आप किसी दुर्घटना के पास से गुजरते हैं... तो आप जानते हैं कि आपको इसके लिए कुछ करना चाहिए क्योंकि आप जानते हैं कि आप ही एकमात्र ऐसे व्यक्ति हैं जो वास्तव में मदद कर सकते हैं।

जब मैं किसी फिल्म का प्रचार कर रहा होता हूँ, तो मैं किसी और चीज में नहीं उलझता, और इसमें मेरी सभी निजी चीजें भी शामिल हैं।

When I'm promoting a film, I'm not going to get caught up in anything else, and that includes all my personal things.

क्या आपको कभी ऐसा महसूस हुआ है कि आप अभी पूरी तरह से शर्मिंदा नहीं हुए हैं, लेकिन कल की शर्मिंदगी की एक झलक आपको अभी से दिख रही है?

Have you ever gotten the feeling that you aren't completely embarassed yet, but you glimpse tomorrow's embarrassment?

लोग मदद के लिए जाते हैं, लेकिन इन [मनोरोग की] दवाओं की वजह से उनकी जिंदगी बेहतर नहीं होती। बल्कि और बदतर हो जाती है। वे सुन्न महसूस करते हैं और उन्हें बताया जाता है कि यह अच्छी बात है। किसी समाज को बर्बाद करने का यही तरीका है - उसे दवाओं के नशे में डुबो देना।

People go for help, but their lives don't get better because of those [psychiatric] drugs. They get worse. They feel numb and they're told that's a good thing. It's how you degrade a society - by drugging the piss out of it.

जब निक यहाँ टोरंटो में 'टू डाई फॉर' की शूटिंग कर रही थीं, तब मैं अक्सर मैपल लीफ्स के मैच देखने जाता था। यह एक बेहतरीन शहर है। मुझे यहाँ से बहुत प्यार है।

I used to go to Maple Leafs games all the time when Nic shot To Die For here in Toronto. This is a great city. I love it here.

मैंने कभी ऐसी फिल्म नहीं बनाई जिस पर मुझे विश्वास न हो, समझे? फिल्म का परिणाम चाहे जैसा भी हो, मैंने हमेशा अपना शत-प्रतिशत दिया है। जिंदगी को देखने का मेरा यहीनजरिया है। मैं इसके बिना नहीं रह सकता। जिंदगी के किसी भी क्षेत्र में मेरे लिए कोई आधा-अधूरा रास्ता नहीं है।

I've never made a film that I didn't believe in, you know? However the picture turns out, I've always given everything to it. That's kind of how I approach life. I can't help it. There's no part-way with me on anything in any area of my life.

جب بھی میں کوئی "مشن" یا کوئی اور فلم بناتا ہوں، لوگ حیرت سے پوچھتے ہیں، "اچھا، اب آگے کیا؟ اگلا قدم کیا ہوگا؟" مجھے لگتا ہے کہ ہمیشہ کوئی نہ کوئی نیا پہاڑ سر کرنے کو ہوتا ہے، اور مستقبل میں ہمیشہ کچھ نہ کچھ نیا چھپا ہوتا ہے۔

Every time I make a "Mission" movie or other films, people kind of look at me and go, "Well, now what? What's next?" I think there's always going to be another mountain. I think there's something always in store.

میں اسکرिप्ट کی ساخت تیار کرتا ہوں، فلموں میں اس پر کام کرتا ہوں اور لکھاریوں کے ساتھ مل کر سین تراشتا ہوں، لیکن میں نے خود کبھی کوئی اسکرिप्ट نہیں لکھی۔ میں لکھاریوں کے کام کی بہت عزت کرتا ہوں اور خود کو خوش قسمت سمجھتا ہوں کہ مجھے ایسے لوگوں کے ساتھ کام کرنے کا موقع ملتا جن کے ساتھ کام کرنے میں مجھے سچی خوشی ملتی ہے۔ ہم سب مل بیٹھ کر خیالات کا تبادلہ کرتے ہیں اور ان چیزوں پر اکٹھے کام کرتے ہیں، مگر میں نے اب تک کوئی اسکرिप्ट نہیں لکھی۔

I structure the scripts and work on them on films and work on scenes with writers and but I haven't written a script myself, I really respect what they do and I'm fortunate I get to work with people that I really enjoy working with and we all kind of spitball and work together on these things, but I haven't written a script yet.

جب میں نے شروعات کی تھی، تو اتنی توجہ اور گھورتے ہوئے لوگوں کو دیکھ کر عجیب سا گھبراہٹ طاری ہو جاتی تھی۔ اب مجھے لگتا ہے کہ سب سے بہتر طریقہ یہ ہے کہ بس پُرسکون رہا جائے۔ مشہور ہو جانے کے بعد ان سب چیزوں کی عادت ڈالنی ہی پڑتی ہے۔

When I first started out all the attention could be a bit unnerving, especially when people stared. Now I find the best thing is to just relax. Being recognized is just something you have to get used to.

اگر میں خود اسٹنٹ نہ کروں، تو کیمرہ ان جگہوں پر نہیں پہنچ سکتا جہاں اس کی ضرورت ہوتی ہے۔ بات اگر کردار اور کہانی کی ہو، تو ہم وہ سب کرتے ہیں۔ ہم چیزوں کو اپنے حساب سے ڈیزائن کرتے ہیں۔ میں صرف دکھاوے کے لیے اسٹنٹ نہیں کرتا۔ میرے لیے یہ کہانی سنانے کا ایک ذریعہ ہے اور یہ سوچتا ہوں کہ ناظرین کو بہترین طریقے سے ایکشن اور کہانی میں کیسے شامل کیا جائے۔ ہم ہمیشہ اسی زاویے سے سوچتے ہیں۔

You can put the camera in places where you may not necessarily be able to put it there if I don't do the stunt. If it's character and it's storytelling, then we do it. We design the things around me. I don't do it just to do a stunt. It's storytelling for me and how I can best bring the audience into the action, bring the audience into the story. And that's how we always look at at.

میں بار بار (کیٹی کو) دیکھتا اور سوچتا رہا، 'یہ عورت کتنی شاندار ہے۔' میں بہت خوش ہوں کہ وہ میری زندگی میں ہے۔ وہ کمال کی ہے، اور اگر وہ میرے ساتھ نہ بھی ہوتی تب بھی میں اس کے بارے میں یہی سوچتا—وہ واقعی لاجواب ہے۔

I kept looking [at Katie] and thinking, 'This woman's amazing.' I'm happy that I'm with her. She's amazing, and I'd think the same of her even if she wasn't with me - she's just amazing.

مجھے اس بات پر بہت سکون ملتا ہے کہ آخرکار مجھے وہ کام مل گیا جس سے مجھے محبت ہے۔ میں کبھی ایک جگہ پر زیادہ دیر نہیں رہا—میری پوری زندگی ہی ایسی گزری ہے۔ میں ہمیشہ سامان باندھ کر یہاں سے وہاں نقل مکانی کرتا رہا، کبھی کینٹکی، کبھی جرسی، تو کبھی سینٹ لوئس میں رہا—ان سب تجربات نے میری بہت مدد کی کیونکہ اس طرح میں نئے لہجے سیکھتا رہا اور مختلف ماحول کا تجربہ کرتا رہا۔

I feel good about the fact that I finally found something I love. I never lived in one place for very long - that's the way my whole life has been. I was always packing and moving around, staying in Canada, Kentucky, Jersey, St. Louis - it all helped because I was always learning new accents, experiencing different environments.

ہر فلم میں، مجھے کہانی اور کرداروں پر کام کرنا بہت اچھا لگتا ہے۔ جہاں تک اسٹنٹس کا تعلق ہے، تو ہم ہر بار خود کو اپنی حدوں سے آگے دھکیلتے ہیں۔ اور ظاہر ہے کہ یہ خطرناک کام ہیں، اس لیے خطرہ تو ہمیشہ بنا رہتا ہے، لیکن خدا کا شکر ہے کہ مجھے کبھی کوئی مسئلہ نہیں ہوا۔ اپنے پورے کیریئر میں، میں نے کبھی ایک دن کا بھی کام نہیں چھوڑا۔ میں ہمیشہ سیٹ پر وقت سے پہلے پہنچتا ہوں۔ میں بہت سخت محنت کرتا ہوں اور ہر ایک چیز کی بڑی باریکی سے تیاری کرتا ہوں۔

With each one, I love working on the story and the characters. The stunts, each time, we keep pushing ourselves harder and harder. And they are stunts, so there's always a danger in doing them, but fortunately, I have not had a problem. I have not missed a day of work, ever, in my career. I'm always there early. And I train very hard, and we prepare very carefully for each one.

ایک اداکار ہونے کے ناطے—بالکل ایک فنکار کی طرح—آپ کو یہ سوال خود سے پوچھنا چاہیے، "میں نے کسی خاص لمحے میں کسی خاص انداز میں اداکاری کا فیصلہ کیوں کیا؟" یہ ہمارے اپنے وجود کا ہی ایک حصہ ہوتا ہے۔

As an actor - like an artist - you have to ask, "Why do I choose a certain moment to play something a certain way?" It's organic to who we are.

بعض اوقات مجھے یہ بات بڑی عجیب لگتی ہے کہ جب اداکار کسی سین یا فلم میں اپنی ذاتی زندگی کا کچھ زیادہ ہی استعمال کرنے لگتے ہیں، تو وہ اس سین میں کسی ایک مخصوص طریقے سے بند کر رہ جاتے ہیں، اور اس میں وہ قدرتی اور جاندار احساس باقی نہیں رہتا۔

What I find sometimes that is tricky is if actors are using too much of their own life in a picture, in a scene, they get locked into a particular way to play the scene, and it lacks an immediacy.

میری زندگی میں بڑے تضاد رہے ہیں۔ ایک وقت تھا جب میں ایک باولا سا بچہ تھا، اور پھر ایک سال ایسا بھی گزرا جب میں سیمینری میں فرانسسکن پادری بننے کی تعلیم حاصل کر رہا تھا.... میں شدید ذہنی اکھاڑ پچھاڑ کا شکار تھا۔

I've had such extremes in my life. From being this kind of wild kid, to one year studying to be a Franciscan priest at the seminary....I was very frustrated.

ہم شروع ہی سے جانتے تھے کہ اس کے لیے کتنی لگن کی ضرورت ہوگی۔ اسٹینلے کوبرک کے ساتھ کام کرنا ہمارے لیے باعثِ فخر تھا۔ ہم اس فلم کے لیے کچھ بھی کرنے کو تیار تھے، چاہے جتنا بھی وقت لگتا، کیونکہ میرا مانگنا تھا—اور نک (نکول کڈمین) کا بھی یہی خیال تھا—کہ یہ ہمارے لیے ایک انتہائی خاص دور ثابت ہوگا۔ ہم جانتے تھے کہ یہ مشکل ہوگا، لیکن اگر میں یہ کام نہ کرتا تو زندگی بھر خود کو کبھی معاف نہ کرتا۔

We knew from the beginning the level of commitment needed. We felt honored to work with Stanley Kubrick. We were going to do what it took to do this picture, whatever time, because I felt - and Nic [Nicole Kidman] did, too - that this was going to be a really special time for us. We knew it would be difficult. But I would have absolutely kicked myself if I hadn`t done this.

اگر میں اپنے مذہب کے بارے میں بات نہ کروں، اور یہ کہہ دوں کہ میں اس پر یا اپنے فلاحی کاموں پر بات نہیں کرنا چاہتا، تو لوگ کہتے ہیں، "وہ اس سے بچ رہا ہے۔" اور اگر میں اس پر بات کروں، تو کہا جاتا ہے، "اوہو، وہ تو اپنے مذہب کی تبلیغ کر رہا ہے۔"

If I don’t talk about my religion, if I say I’m not discussing it or different humanitarian things I’m working on, they’re like, “He’s avoiding it.” If I do talk about it, it becomes, “Oh, he’s proselytizing.”

Talk is over-rated as a means of settling disputes

ہم ایک ایسی دنیا میں رہتے ہیں جہاں ہم مختلف طریقوں سے بڑی تیزی سے بات چیت کر سکتے ہیں، لیکن پھر بھی ایک دوسرے سے رابطہ کرنا پہلے سے کہیں زیادہ مشکل ہو گیا ہے۔ درحقیقت آج ہمیں مواصلات کی جتنی اشد ضرورت ہے اتنیپہلے کبھی نہیں تھی، کیونکہ جو دشمن ہمیں گھیرے ہوئے ہیں وہ سب کے لیے مشترکہ ہیں: منشیات، ناخواندگی اور جرم۔ ہمیں مل کر ان کا مقابلہ کرنا ہوگا۔

We live in a world in which we are able to communicate very quickly in many different ways, and yet we find communicating more difficult than ever. When in fact we need communication more urgently than ever, because the enemies that threaten us are universal: drugs, illiteracy and crime. We have to fight against them together.

فلم بنانا شطرنج کے کھیل جیسا ہے۔ یہ مسلسل بدلتے ہوئے انداز اور نئے حالات کے مطابق خود کو ڈھالنے کا نام ہے۔ جیسا کہ آپ جانتے ہیں، یہ صرف سیاہ و سفید کا کھیل نہیں ہے۔

Making a movie is like a chess game. It's about constantly changing patterns, adapting to new things. It's not just black and white, as you know.

خواہ وہ فلم بنانا ہو یا اپنے بچوں کی پرورش کرنا، ذاتی طور پر میں ہمیشہ یہی کوشش کرتا ہوں کہ درست کام کروں اور نئی چیزیں سیکھوں۔

میرے اندر یہ سنجیدگی کہاں سے آئی؟ جب والدین میں طلاق ہو جائے تو انسان وقت سے پہلے بڑا ہونے پر مجبور ہو جاتا ہے۔ آپ اپنی ماں کو دیکھتے ہیں کہ وہ چار بچوں کا پیٹ پالنے کے لیے فوڈ اسٹامپس حاصل کرنے جاتی ہیں، اور صرف پچاس ڈالر زیادہ ہونے کی وجہ سے انہیں وہ نہیں مل پاتے۔

Where do I get my seriousness? You can't help but grow up fast when your parents get divorced. You see your mother go to get food stamps and she's making fifty dollars too much to get them, with four kids to support.

مجھے لکھاریوں اور ان کی اسکرिप्टز کے ساتھ کام کرنا بہت پسند ہے۔ یہ میرے لیے انتہائی پُرجوش تجربہ ہوتا ہے۔ میں مستقبل میں پروڈیوسر، ڈائریکٹر بننا اور اسٹیج پر اداکاری کرنا چاہتا ہوں، لیکن اس کے لیے میرے اوپر کوئی دباؤ نہیں ہے۔ جب بھی میں یہ کروں گا، بہترین طریقے سے کروں گا۔ فی الحال میں لکھاریوں اور اسکرिप्टز کے ذریعے خود کو نکھار رہا ہوں، کیونکہ جب میں چھوٹا تھا تو میں نے زیادہ کتابیں نہیں پڑھی تھیں۔

I enjoy working with writers and their scripts. It's very exciting to me. Eventually I would like to produce, direct and act onstage, but it's not a heavy pressure. When I do it, I want to do it well. I'm just educating myself with writers and scripts, because I didn't read a lot of books when I was growing up.

اسٹینلے کوبرک جب کلوز اپ شاٹ لیتے تھے تو بہت سوچ سمجھ کر انتخاب کرتے تھے۔ ہر ہدایت کار کا اداکاری سے متعلق اپنا ذوق ہوتا ہے، لیکن اسٹینلے کسی سین کو گہرائی سے پرکھتے تھے تاکہ وہ چیز تلاش کر سکیں جو ان کے لیے سب سے زیادہ دلچسپ ہو۔

Stanley Kubrick was very selective when he went into a close-up. Every director has his taste in a performance, but Stanley would explore a scene to find what was most interesting for him.

میرے خیال میں اگر ٹیکنالوجی کا استعمال ذمہ دارانہ طریقے سے نہ کیا جائے، تو یہ ایک بُری بات ہے۔ البتہ ٹیکنالوجی کا پھیلاؤ اور اس کی اگلی منزل ناگزیر ہے، اور اس کے ایسے بے شمار فوائد ہیں جو مجموعی طور پر معاشرے اور افراد کی مدد کر سکتے ہیں۔

I think if technology is used in a way that is not responsible, that is a bad thing. I think technology and where it is going inevitable, and there's great benefits that can help an individual in society at large.

میں یہ بھی جانتا ہوں کہ اس کیریئر میں شہرت اور اقتدار عارضی ہیں، یہ ہمیشہ قائم نہیں رہتے، اس لیے میں اس سے بھرپور فائدہ اٹھانا چاہتا ہوں۔ میں ویسی ہی فلمیں بنانا چاہتا ہوں جو مجھے دلچسپ لگتی ہیں، بات بالکل سیدھی ہے۔ میں نے کبھی پیسوں کے لیے کام نہیں کیا۔ اگر آپ کا انتخاب صرف کمائی پر مبنی ہو اور فلم باکس آفس پر نہ چلے، تو اس کا کیا مطلب رہ جاتا ہے؟ آخرکار آپ کے ہاتھ کچھ نہیں بچتا۔

I also realise power is fleeting, it doesn't last forever in this career, so I want to make the most of it. I want to make the kinds of pictures that interest me, it's as simple as that. I've never done work for money ever. If your choices are based on grosses and the film doesn't do well, what does that mean? It leaves you with nothing.

میرے لیے کسی فلم کو لے کر پوری دنیا کا سفر کرنا، مختلف ثقافتوں اور بین الاقوامی کاسٹ کے ساتھ کام کرنا، اور ایک ایسی جاسوسی اور سنسنی خیز کہانی بنانا جو صرف کردار تک محدود نہ ہو بلکہ ایکشن اور سسپنس سے بھی بھرپور ہو—ایک پروڈیوسر کے طور پر ایسی فلمیں بنانا، ایسی کہانیاں اور ایسے مناظر تخلیق کرنا جو اس کردار (ایتھن ہنٹ) کے ساتھ انصاف کریں، واقعی ایک بڑا چیلنج ہوتا ہے۔

For me, to take a movie and travel the world and go and work with these cultures and an international cast and have this spy thriller that's not just about character but also action and suspense, they're very challenging films as a producer to make, creating stories, creating set pieces that serve this character [Ethan Hunt].

अगर कोई अब अपराधी नहीं बने रहना चाहता, तो मैं उसे ऐसे साधन दे सकता हूँ जो उसकी ज़िंदगी बेहतर बना सकें। आपको अंदाज़ा भी नहीं है कि कितने लोग यह जानना चाहते हैं कि साइंटोलॉजी क्या है।

लेकिन मुझे लगता है कि अगर आप साइंटोलॉजी को देखें, तो यह सबसे तेज़ी से बढ़ने वाला धर्म है। इसने इतने सारे लोगों की मदद की है।

जब मैं काम करता हूँ, तो मैं एक अभिनेता हूँ। मैं अपना काम करूँगा। मैं फिल्म निर्देशित नहीं करने जा रहा हूँ। अगर मैं इसे निर्देशित करना चाहता, तो मैं ही इसे निर्देशित करता। मैं चाहता था कि जे.जे. एब्राम्स 'मिशन: इंपॉसिबल' का निर्देशन करें। मैं ऐसे लोगों के साथ काम करता हूँ जिनका मैं सम्मान करता हूँ। मैं उनसे अपने काम को पूरा करने की उम्मीद करता हूँ, और मैं अपना काम करूँगा। और मैं किसी भी तरह से मदद करने के लिए एक निर्माता के रूप में वहाँ हूँ, लेकिन कोई भी फिल्म अपने दम पर नहीं बनाता। यह एक सामूहिक प्रयास है।

When I work, I'm the actor. I'm going to do my job. I'm not going to direct the movie. If I wanted to direct it, I would direct it. I wanted J.J. Abrams to direct Mission: Impossible. I work with people that I respect. I expect them to do their jobs, and I will do mine. And I am there as a producer to help in any way, but no one makes a movie by themselves. It's a collaboration.

मैं अपने काम से प्यार करता हूँ। मुझे अपने काम पर बहुत गर्व है। और मैं कोई भी काम आधा-अधूरी, पौन या नब्बे प्रतिशत शिद्दत से नहीं कर सकता। अगर मुझे कुछ करना है, तो मैं अपना सौ प्रतिशत देता हूँ।

I love what I do. I take great pride in what I do. And I can't do something halfway, three-quarters, nine-tenths. If I'm going to do something, I go all the way.

ज़रूरी बात यह है कि आप अपने काम में तनावमुक्त रहें। ज़िंदगी में भी यही नियम लागू होता है। हर चीज़ को ज़रूरत से ज़्यादा गंभीर मत बनाइए। तभी आप सब कुछ सहजता से छोड़ सकेंगे और "अभिनय" करने की ज़रूरत नहीं पड़ेगी।

The important thing is to be relaxed in your work. Same in life. Don't make everything too intense. Then you can let everything go and not "act".
