00:00I can't explain it to you. That bond with Baba...
00:05But I'll be honest with you, Baba didn't teach me acting.
00:19Who is your acting guru?
00:23You know it. Everyone knows it.
00:26But I'll be honest with you, Baba didn't teach me acting.
00:29By the time he started teaching me acting, it was time for him to pass.
00:33But he has always told me that
00:37you can put as much into acting as you can pull from life.
00:41If you don't pull from life, you won't be able to put into acting.
00:45Because you won't be able to put those things into your soul.
00:50So, Baba has taught me a lot of life lessons.
00:56He has taught me to reflect on myself in every moment of my life.
01:06He has taught me to surrender. He has taught me to respect people.
01:10He has taught me how to be a small part of the evolution of this universe.
01:18If you don't treat people with kindness and love,
01:24then neither will I grow, nor will my art grow.
01:28And I haven't died a good death.
01:32When Baba used to get tired of everything,
01:36he used to go to the jungle.
01:39Like Jim Corbett, he was famous for National Park.
01:42One night, there was a big tree here.
01:51We had our dinner, and we were sleepy.
01:54So, we went under the tree and lay down on the grass.
01:58We were joking around.
02:01We were having fun.
02:04For two seconds, we were quiet.
02:07There was a deer. There was a stream in front of us.
02:10There was a river where the animals used to come and drink water.
02:14So, the deer came. We were drinking water.
02:18Suddenly, a tiger attacked the deer.
02:24Suddenly, a tiger attacked the deer.
02:25I mean, just look at it.
02:28I mean, just look at the deer.
02:31The tiger attacked the deer.
02:34Baba Makbool, Paan Singh Tomar,
02:40I mean, just look at them.
02:43I mean, just look at them.
02:47I mean, just look at them.
02:50There's an electrical fence in front of us.
02:52But when you look at the tiger,
02:55the electrical fence doesn't work.
02:58Baba Makbool and I were looking at each other.
03:00And the tiger was dragging it.
03:02It was dragging it in front of us.
03:05Niranjan and I were just looking at it.
03:08I can't explain it to you.
03:11That bond with Baba Makbool.
