Suraj is just so adorable!

[@arbiongaming7490]

wtach him in god friended me ;)

[@sailorscorpio27]

Suraj is so cuteeeee

[@TheOpeneyes00]

Suraj is my new idol. Guy with no acting experience, but more talent than I can even fathom, intense passion, acted with imaginary animals, and made it look real (of course with the amazing talents of the animating team) and did all of his own stunts which included being pelted with gallons and gallons of water I'm sure. :) Just amazing. Favorite movie ever!

[@shigura12]

the interviewer looks like he ate his cereal with redbull and coffee instead of milk

[@arjunpaddy]

you just made my day

[@cinema.zipfile]

He's such an amazing actor

[@thembela]

Suraj is really amazing and he has the best laugh. Luv him loads

[@sudi412]

suraj is so freakin' cute!!!

[@shobhittodi9540]

why the interviewer in so much hurry.. is he running late for a flight?

[@MrTheManav]

shobhit todi schedule is an important word in the 8 minute interviews that almost all television channels invest into.

[@MariaLuigi07]

This young man is fantastic! And the movie too! When I read the book, I simply couldn't let it go and the movie still amazes me... Ang Lee has made another masterpiece!

[@MsRaconteur]

Why the hell wasn't he nominated for an Oscar...?

[@pwt3000]

Suraj Sharma was spectacular in the film, and I'm so glad to see that he's an intelligent, friendly and articulate person as well. I hope this rising star cleans up on awards for his performance; if he doesn't, something's really wrong.

[@thembela]

why is suraj so beautifull. I love his face in 10:25 wow I luv this boy this movie and Ang lee and the cast and crew. Thank u.

[@quwaran.7264]

[@junsing06]

the characters especially pi and richard, the plot of the story, the lessons, the visual effects, everything is amazing..it is just simply amazing. the greatest movie i ever seen.

[@reidthepaige211]

This movie is the best movie i have ever saw and it has really changed my life, saw it in theaters with some friends and well i wish i had it on dvd so i could watch it when ever i wanted and i saw it in 3d too absolutely amazing for tons of reasons, i was lost for words when i saw it and im pretty sure it touched all who watched it

[@theinvaderbailz]

Best two hours and six minites of my life. I went to see this three times already. Fourth time tommorow. I cant get over this. Suraj come love me you beautiful human being you.

[@lillost]

Wow! I wasn't really interested enough to see this movie in theaters but I may have to get myself to check it out, because of this interview!

[@sariahhill9953]

I love you suraj sharma. I will watch all your movies you act in:D

[@0934007330]

The crew was the best, thanks Suraj for mentioning us we love you too .

[@MaljaSteffiLee]

did the interview have 10 other meetings that day? LOL at the last part 'KTHXBYE GTG'

[@gymgirl2]

+Malja Steffi Lee It's a press junket, it's done in a hotel. So yes he probably had other movies to prepare/interview for, and there were also other interviewers outside waiting their turn.

[@mygun2urhead]

this was such an amazing movie

[@amarisamor]

He's so cuuute

[@HeatherPonyweather]

Aww, he's so cute! I love the way he speaks! And how passionate he is about his work.

[@whatevermz]

'Life of Pi' was the best movie I've seen this year. and I started loving my life more than I did before after I watched Life of Pi and Amour.....

[@TheJMusicNow]

I love how Suraj just gives up explaining the movie set and says, "Ang is a genius"

[@bigphat200]

On my 3rd and am just noticing that the movie is over 2 hrs. long. Showed it to my family and they loved it.

[@supastar25]

Just watched it last night and can honestly say it's one of the best films I've watched....the way it makes you think afterwards is food for thought. Ang Lee deserved the Oscar...

[@alamnyobaangalin2023]

Life of Pi opens in Philippine theaters on January 8, 2013.. cant wait.

[@claire1909]

these interviews always make me more excited for a movie. ALWAYS.

[@MarsNis]

I think this interviewer did an amazing job! God bless Ang Lee he made a wonderful movie! And Suraj played the role of Pi perfectly!

[@harrowven1]

Suraj and Ang both should receive an Oscar. The film was one of the very best I have ever seen (twice), and the book is one of the best I have read. It is a masterpiece.

[@TwilightSagaBella1]

Great movie, great acting...an amazing movie from director Ang Lee..a masterpiece.

[@himanshub2]

Suraj Sharma lives and study at college near my home in Delhi. (my bad luck i dunno him personally!) Suraj is a hindi word literally meaning SUN ☼ well the boy is a rising sun in hollywood.

[@yanetrenteria7829]

Suraj Sharma for Aladdin Live Action👍

[@adolfoalbornoz3730]

Aladdin is not indian but arabian

[@Avalyn_Wu]

Good movie, good music and soundtrack, good actor, good director, good use of 3D, just a masterpiece! This interview was also more interesting than any other.

[@J_Cinematics]

I wish Jake had a talk show, hes the best interviewer I've seen in a long time.

[@alexmontero2519]

Suraj is such a great and an adorable actor. He gave complete justice to the character as Pi.

[@vivs005]

Just out of Delhi university and gaining major success internationally, you're my idol Suraj! For making our country proud :)

[@bigphat200]

I am in love with this movie.

[@Strifenhart]

Suraj has the cutest laugh I have ever heard... at first I was like, "Wow that could get annoying..." but after hearing it the second time I was sunk. It's just so adorable!!

[@onomanapua]

Love this video and interviews!! TY!

[@EbonyYoung8833]

One of the best movies I've seen in my life :) and this interview is also a great insider into the thoughts and emotions of the director and main actor. Loved it :) so speeachless at what they have to say too .. It's a very opening interview.

[@christinelauren2136]

this movie is amazing...Suraj and Ang are brilliant...they both deserve an Oscar....Suraj was amazing eventhough he's an amateur....the movie was inspiring and uplifting....i cried watching it...two thumbs up!

[@fanatic013]

PREACH IT. I was so disappointed because I felt he deserved an Oscar over the others! I really feel that he was snubbed because he's considered an "unknown newcomer." But everybody know who he is now! :)

[@ReySamful]

Wow...I had just seen Life of Pi yesterday and was it spectacular! Suraj Sharma's first feature film was definitely a masterpiece and I'm sure Suraj has big things ahead of him. Such a great actor. Can't wait for his next film!

[@NakiaaRene]

I'm actually watching it now lol at the same time. but I paused it to watch this

[@bassgod47]

Amazing interview, you paced him well, worked up to difficult questions and provided a fantastic insight to an otherwise unknown personality

[@TheRichaoberoi]

i loved this movie...suraj acting is so wonderful!!!

[@kristineholcroft9163]

Wonderful movie we need more like this one

[@Flaming88]

Ang Lee is a maestro in movie industry. I read the book & watched the movie. Respect to Yann Martel as well, Ang Lee able to mix the story around & still able to remain the theme. Genius! He is the star in this movie.

[@hemaramasamy6080]

It is called "Lullaby" a Tamil song sung by Bombay Jayshree. I cannot get this song out of my heart. Mychael Danna's understanding of Indian music and fusing it with European / western music was awesome! Mychael co-wrote the sing with Jayshree.

[@kiran02109]

RAWWWWR , Ive seen the trailer like 20 times and the movie isnt released in cinemas till January 1st, i cant wait

[@orenn12]

great movie & actor (the main actor)

[@TheDifardi]

i watched this twice. This movie soooo wonderful.

[@loslopez1420]

That interviewer is on speed! - a fake display if I ever saw one...

[@HA0NA0N]

Incredible film. I was extremely moved.

[@viratv4388]

Brilliant and unforgetable movie...Ang Lee is a genius. I will be buying this movie for my own keep.

[@rhidiandavies1991]

Suraj seems like a really cool, down to earth young dude. Hope to see him in more stuff!

[@blupatches3030]

it's what you're feeling not what you're seeing.

[@MrPcopelin]

Life of Pi was so powerful....this is what real art is all about !!!

[@hersce]

Sharma deserves the Oscar for this film.

[@ReySamful]

Props to Ang Lee as well for making this masterpiece

[@jacklynsalleh7749]

He will be one of the greatest actor.....like m. ghandi....bright future for him lots of good luck 😊😊😊👍👍👍👍👍👍💚💚💚💚💚

[@sunnysummerheaven]

seriously you are really good in this interview, you brought suraj out of his shell as a first time actor doing junkets

[@keningxue1]

I can't believe he acted all with the blue background by himself, not with a real tiger! And Ann Lee and his team made the rest to make it a great great movie in 2012. Such a FANTASTIC job!!

[@SoNgO1314]

" But Columbus was sailing for India."- π Amazing movie!

[@tamy94uae]

i saw the movie yesterday it was amazing and worth it .. when the movie ends .. you will feel that you just wake up from awesome dream

[@MsRaconteur]

Yeah, I remember that too - Frieda Pinto and Dev Patel were great, but they didn't get any sort of a nod. I think people forget that the Academy isn't a group of unbiased voters - they have friends who have been nominated, people who they like, so they are going to vote based on their own personal opinions on those people. Basically winning an Oscar doesn't mean that you're fantastic - at least not anymore.

[@nangfathai]

I love Ang Lee, what a humble and intelligent man

[@albreiki5725]

Taiwanis are like that..they are amazing

[@fleurgi]

i agree. it was a lovely interview. i think jake is just so good at making anyone feel comfortable

[@Cindy4684]

Hooray for ''Paradise'' by Coldplay in this movie!! Also a stand up ovation for Ang for such a great movie and thanks because he brought Suraj to the big screen (he's just like, hypnotizing) People, if you haven't seen it, run to the theater!

[@annemaria3759]

One of the better films that Ive seen in a while.

[@davidearl2413]

Portland, OR loves this Movie. ▼

[@cantuz557]

Amour, definetely makes you want to enjoy life... I havent watched Life of Pi yet, waiting for the bluray...

[@StillTruee]

This movie was nothing short of beautiful.

[@fonetstationary]

one of this movies is creative to human who understand of their "life is struggle"

[@awesomeawesome3329]

Loved this movie💕

[@vijeta100]

Such a great Interview.

[@fanatic013]

Three cheers for Pi! Though Suraj didn't get nominated, this film has touched me in so many ways and many other peoples'. That's what matters at the end of the day. At least this film so rightfully won Oscars for Cinematography, Original Score, Visual Effects, and Best Director! And in any case Suraj will always be a winner in my eyes! [And he is pretty easy on the eyes, if I may say so ;)]

[@BarqzBitez]

awesome movie! saw it in 3D, worthwhile and never a dull moment. Suraj made the movie :)

[@marina668]

I am so glad that i didn't watch this video before the movie. I thought everything was real !OMG Beautiful !!!

[@jko8ukm]

the fact that paradise was in this video made it 20x better than it already was

[@KimikoTheWolfgirl]

actor was super attractive!!!

[@MohdDanialMuhdAli]

[@luna8200]

He is beyond gorgeous!!!

[@eesulbee]

[@86alireza]

[@Jacobcreated]

best. movie. EVER!

[@candorpluslove]

Such an incredible film!

[@maryward8040]

Suraj Sharma makes this a wonderful movie.

[@Amp1771]

I like the way he speak...not the accent but he just sounds honest and not rehearsed like most hollywood trash actors

[@eXtremeMohaz]

did this movie received a breakthrough performances award??? because it did good a very well acting...the story was something uplifting...

[@englandsensation]

I hope people see this movie! I saw it in NYFF! It's amazing! The 3-D is used as part of the story, not just like "a cool effect". The story is so good, the tiger is just amazing, the performances... all of it is just so beautiful!! People.... go and see this movie!! It will be an Oscar frunt runner for sure and money very very well spend!!

[@IAmTheRealSiri]

Movie is Pure Gold

[@lesCorpsCelestes]

He is such a cutie omg I wanna hug him

[@TwilightSagaBella1]

Thank you for sharing this fun interview with us Jake...I fell in love with this movie - 3D version -. You look like Tom Cruise by the way...:))

[@Tina2tu]

Great movie and great young actor :)
