On being called sanskaari (traditionalist) and reduction of a kissing scene in the film Spectre, as quoted in " I was called 'Sankskaari' as if it was an abuse - Pahlaj Nihalani http://www.bollywoodhungama.com/celebrities/features/type/view/id/9501" Bollywood Hungama (31 December 2015)
“My hope is that Casino Royale has not only re-invented James Bond, but made him relevant for the 21st century. The target audience has shifted. Although there's nothing in Casino Royale that will exclude teenagers, this 007 is aimed squarely at adults. The November release date is also perfect — the film is almost too dark and serious for the kind of lighthearted, mindless fun we associate with summer blockbusters. In recent years, I have come to each new James Bond movie with a series of ingrained expectations. For the most part, the Brosnan films met them across the board. Casino Royale defies many of them, and I couldn't be happier.”
