"If you ask me why I’m successful, I’d say that’s because I stay away from negative people. These people can pull you down and inject negativity into you. Good times and bad times are part of one’s life, but if you have negative people around you, bad times will never end."
"It’s important to be positive throughout and ignore the negative vibe. If your team and you stay positive, nothing external can touch you. I think it’s experiencing the ups and downs of life. It’s important to sort out your priorities and decide how you want to live your life. You have to stay positive no matter what. Work keeps me so busy that I don’t get the time. However, if someone close to me invites me, I will surely be there. I’m not an egoistic person but I am quite stubborn by nature. I don’t harbour an ego because I want to learn from everything but self-respect matters to me. If someone tells me ‘you can’t do it’, I will divert all my energy to do it and show them that I can."
"Each film is challenging and a learning process for me. BO collection is not the only thing that matters for an actor as he should also be emotionally involved with the character he portrays."

Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
