There's a few people who I've accumulated over the years who I really trust to show a first cut to and to be helpful rather than unhelpful.

I mix Indian instruments with Western instruments all the time.
You cannot go beyond a certain limit in your expenditure if you want to bring back money from your local market, which is very small after Pakistan.
Cinema’s characteristic forte is its ability to capture and communicate the intimacies of the human mind.
