Actor Naseeruddin Shah believes that film actors should have some other interest apart from movies, whether it is theatre or horse riding, mountain climbing anything. Otherwise you tend to become too insular. He said it is a shame that some of the biggest Bollywood stars are intellectually challenged and incapable of discussing things beyond themselves. Shah told, 'I believes that film actors should have some other interest apart from movies, whether it is theatre or horse riding, otherwise you end up like one of these creatures who are stars in our industry, with whom you cannot have two seconds of conversation.' He said, 'You talk about them whole night, he will listen, but if you talk about something else, then his brain gets shut. I think it is a shame that some of our biggest stars are so intellectually challenged.' Shah films are Nishant, Jane Bhi Do yaaro, Masoom, Monsoon Wedding, Mirza Galib, Sarfarosh. He don't have long friendlis, because he loves making friends like Danny Denzongpa, Tinu Anand and Jackie Shroff, who like him, have other interests apart from movies.
