More quotes by Imtiaz Ali
"The story of 'Highway' is completely about travel. It is about the fascination of travel to an extent that I don't want to even reach the destination and also being away from society gives you a certain view of the society, so that was the intention of the film."
"I think I am a travel junkie and I have never enjoyed anything else in my life more than travelling and going to places."
"All the conscious decisions that I have taken in my life have never borne fruit. Not even come close! So, I am just very happy not planning."
"I try to travel as much as I can... I'm always looking for a reason to."
"I myself got married at a very young age. It has always intrigued me because marriage is very synthetic in an otherwise natural world."
