Archie Panjabi Quotes

I’d love to do a romantic comedy. And perhaps, if the character was right and I had a good gut instinct, a Bollywood movie. And I’d love to direct. One day. I’m learning a lot on the set of ‘The Good Wife.’ Picture Quote #1

It was the success of ‘Bend it Like Beckham’ which got my name out there. ‘A Mighty Heart’ also helped Picture Quote #1

You have this impression from England that New Yorkers can be quite aggressive, but certainly the people that I’ve bumped into and the friends I’ve made here don’t seem that way.

There is a big misconception about arranged marriage. Yes, it can mean that you meet someone and then have to marry them, but this was my mother saying, ‘I’m going to introduce you to so-and-so - If you don’t like them, fair enough Picture Quote #1

The generation that migrated to the West in the 1970s or 1960s has now lived more in the West than India, and India has changed so much. My parents fall into that category Picture Quote #1

I knew from a young age that I wanted to be an actor. I never even thought about other careers.

Coming to New York is like a big hug, everyone is so welcoming. There’s something about here, everyone makes you feel so at home. I miss my family of course, but I don’t miss London that much. I was worried, but I feel really at home. Everyone says that who comes here from London, but I didn’t believe them Picture Quote #1

I had a dialect coach to get an American accent, and then another dialect coach to come off it a bit. There is something deep and mysterious in the voice when it isn’t too high-pitched American Picture Quote #1

It was the success of ‘Bend it Like Beckham’ which got my name out there. ‘A Mighty Heart’ also helped Picture Quote #1
