Kalki Koechlin answers, I'm terrible. I don't watch cricket.

pmils asked, You are more comfortable in Tamil or French?
Kalki Koechlin answers, French.

Sg-Fanboy asked, What was the need of re-interpreting Devdas story ? Minus all the gloss , it is still a very simple & linear story. IMHO, a talented guy like Anurag should use his energies on telling new universal stories. The kind of stories which would bring an Oscar home. Dev-D is totally India centric.. don't you think so ? AK is meant for bigger stuff.
Kalki Koechlin answers, It is India centric. But it's a step for Indian cinema, I think this allows him to do bigger stuff.

Kalki Koechlin answers, It made me think lots, and depression is one of the symptoms of thinking.
