00:04 How can you forget such a funny, strict yet sensitive character from this all-time favorite movie?
00:10 The great actor who played this role, Mr. Boman Irani, turns 64 today.
00:16 This actor's life story is very filmy.
00:18 Earlier he was a waiter and after his 30, he came into the acting field.
00:23 But do you have any idea about his photography passion?

00:47 He possessed the discipline.
00:49 The very important thing that photography has given him is expression.

01:02 He learned many things just by observing the photographs of artists like Raghu Rai, Pablo Barcolomeo, Ansel Adams and Henry Cartier Bresson.
01:12 For him, vision is more important than equipment.
01:15 Of course, equipment plays a major role in photography.
01:18 But if equipment makes you feel blocked at that point, then your creativity ends.
01:23 So you should never let your vision be restricted due to lack of equipment is what he said once.

01:45 The only thing which stops us is our own creativity.
