Apologies for the wrong Albert Pinto Poster.

[@av1421]

He and his wife are SO full of themselves. I would NEVER expect Al Pacino or Robert De Niro will EVER talk like this! Shameful. Its because Journos like you chadavo them to the skies....poor blokes....

[@av1421]

Such a delusional actor this one.....

[@AGNYC]

Jealous much you mota

[@ai.ai.captain]

Thanks again for this fantastic interview of a brilliant actor and even better as a human …strongest spine ever❤

[@ameya7723]

Nothing great about this mediocre actor. All his acting looks similar whether serious, comedy or anger. Same expression. He is nothing in front of versatile Anupam Kher. And I don't know why he thinks he is an intellectual.

[@rohanmukherjee647]

Been watching his interviews for years. Always a fan of his work, and a bigger fan of his annoyance with everything in the world around him. It’s like the entire universe has always conspired to dissapoint him.

[@AllTimeBollywoodFan]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@geegee246]

his wife shares a similar opinion....

[@tanu4647]

Entire Universe Has always conspire to disappoint Him her r he.. Is bulls eye proverb ⚡🤝✌👍👌

[@nickita_kaur]

Still can't find his any good interview

[@tanu4647]

Naseer Bhai a Split personality ⚡

[@ravicraoify]

"Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron" is still a HUGE Stress Buster for me, whenever I feel like a victim of corruption in modern India. The guest was damn right when he mentioned that this movie was way ahead of its times. Its so so very relevant even today.

[@senguptasayn]

Same for me. Completely agree with you.

[@MrFaraz1986]

The guest is the actor in the movie lol

[@TheDebattam]

It's such a sad statement from him about the actors from "Jane bhido yaaro! " , it suddenly felt that Sir realised that they are all gone. 😑 May all the lost souls rest in peace. 🙂🙏🏻

[@bilal_ahmed1011]

I literally jumped, like a galloping horse at this interview. Thank you very much for doing this with the maestro.

[@PokhrajRoy.]

Naseeruddin Shah will always be a gem of the theatre. Although it would be sad if we don’t see him in films.

[@o.adesuwa]

Icon! His performance in Monsoon Wedding was outstanding.

[@rm3015]

One of the best if not THE BEST. I love listening to this articulate, intelligent man. Host was tongue tied but hey you can't blame her. Naseer is a legend.

[@vikasbhati2]

Naseer saab. What a living legend.

[@pulakeshinjoshi4450]

Wow... I'd never thought he will agree to do the interview ... Kudos to film companion

[@enersourceinsightsrahulkoc8854]

Always appreciated his work. Many of his roles. Big or small. Sneha's questioning is so mature and bought the best of Nazir Saab. Lovely interaction. Kudos to FC !

[@kapadiavicky]

Amazing Sneha! You nailed it!! 😊

[@FilmCompanionStudios]

Thanks

[@manish_semwal_26]

Naseer sahab for me now look like the last episode of Mirza ghalib, where all his companions have gone away one by one and he is just waiting for his time, i can see that in his eyes...

[@aatishjagtap6443]

Hope Gulshan Devaiah watched this All actors he named Guy knows his cinema 🤙🏼🤙🏼💯💯💯

[@dr.dharmesh.bhadja]

sneha done good job... Nasir saab is one of the golden pages of indian cinema for few generations... words of wisdom and unfortunate lethargy... anyways it is always amazing to see him talking his heart. and the by the way, his left side collor was dropped a bit! :)))))

[@rishiraaj.580]

Very Talented Man. Acting Is All About Every Actor Performing Their Part Well. 👍

[@sujitdahal1916]

❤️❤️❤️love from NEPAL for NASEER sir 💕💕🙏🏽🙏🏽

[@roysaptarshi]

He is such a gem! ❤

[@jarmangill5911]

“Gray - haired guy who will dye their hair and put whitner on it to look old “ 💀 💀 no bollywood superster was hurt . Naseer sit’s honesty is scary .

[@raaxaa]

Anil Kapoor came to me mind immediately

[@Fugazi77]

Surprising that he didn't mention Anantnag while talking about the cast of Nishant. They did 3-4 films directed by shyam benegal

[@garry_starr_official]

i watched Jaane Bhi Do Yaaro right after this interview . what an incredible masterpiece . ending scene of ramlela too much fun. 🤣🤣🙏🙏

[@hrichikchatterjee69]

Greatest Indian actor of all time.

[@shashijain5084]

More than the guests it's a pleasure to see Sneha & listen to her great style of interviewing !!!! 💯🌠✨⭐🌟🥇🇮🇳

[@neobeinghuman]

Lovely interview and a lovely host.. Tipping Tap hats off to the legend Nasser saab..

[@seshpakala7438]

[@pritishpadhy2603]

There will never be a better actor than Naseer Sb in Indian cinema. Lovely interview, also liked the grace of the host a lot👌👌

[@prads1000]

This is a pleasant surprise.. Naseeruddin Shah Sir acknowledging Kamal Haasan Sir as a Great Actor.. Never seen him say anything good about Kamal Haasan Sir .. Kamal Haasan Sir wrote and directed Naseeruddin Shah in one of the all time best movie from Indian Cinema i.e. Hey Ram..

[@Qursheed]

Grumpy old man. Fabulous actor 😊❤

[@dubb3292]

his scenes in Gehrayian ....♥

[@nilimawanjari1264]

Yes deepika and his scenes were awesome💗

[@abdul518]

You can't use such words like SCREWs UP, when you represent Film Companion known by Anupama Chopra and interviewing Naseer a legend. Anyway it was a good interview :)

[@krutikaganatra9396]

Girlllll.. you rock it everytime! And what a fab job at not being intimidated! Or not showing it

[@FilmCompanionStudios]

Thank youuu!

[@saraswathinarasimhan3560]

Sneha, you are truly one of the best at this, keep shining!

[@hrishikeshsanglikar5723]

I just love how Sneha conducts the interview!

[@DillonPink]

Brilliant interview. Loved it. It was almost as if he was playing his character in ZNMD.

[@AbhayVakil01]

Sneha's personality and voice reminds me of Deepika Padukone

[@shaikhadil7893]

Very few people know that al pacino took inspiration form sprash before playing scent of a women

[@ms0880]

so happy for you Sneha :)) you did great!

[@priyamkumar2297]

2nd. Fine acting in the series!

[@sukhbirsingh-dq7rc]

[@cinefile0075]

14:16 old albert pinto ...not new one lol

[@nezreenashraf640]

It makes me sad that he is aging 🥺

[@rajupaul9500]

Ohhh just listen to the grave, heavy voice of Mr. Shah..

[@arun_7591]

WOW Great Interview 👌

[@shanvirawat2988]

[@mb-uo9wv]

Congratulations Sneha - very good show

[@snehith193]

[@sabihatanveer8494]

💓u sir

[@abhishekmallick2257]

Legend!

[@lekhamenon3025]

Great interview.

[@AK-yb5qh]

Everyone complaining about his cribbing.....the pov to be seen from is how sensitive and receptive the man is that makes him angry with this twisted world.

[@hammadshaikh4278]

Mirza galib forever ❤

[@vikaswadhwani3960]

First interview with Naseer Saab??? Really? Why didn’t it happen before Anupama? 🤔

[@schoolofsocialscience8117]

Wrong Albert Pinto Poster

[@SabkoRamRam]

No Naseer saheb this Nation has tired of your thoughts abt it 😅

[@thevindranrames]

He can only name 2

[@user-ym2ux2un8n]

Hello..Good day...can you give me the con tact of mr nasirddin shah? Please

[@krupadave1975]

Vo kuch bhi kahe vo hi BOSS hai.

[@itsachar1571]

He is a class apart when it comes to acting

[@aryanagrawal3723]

Great interviewer and interviewee

[@rahultiwari-dx8qo]

Fc u hv the wrong poster of Albert pinto ko gussa kyun aata hai.thats the poster of the remake

[@FilmCompanionStudios]

Yes. Apologies for the same.

[@rupesh7566]

Anupama doesn't consider Naseer Saab important enough to herself conduct this interview? And instead sends a junior! Utter disrespect

[@beingcyrus6821]

Anupama Chopra with her Abbujaan ❤

[@DivyaNagananda]

he's so cynical! and has a terrible view of the world around him... just like everyone his age ...

[@nitsmagicniteshsurwade1808]

thats what age does to people..but he is not that bad

[@saadiqbal2193]

Obliged! After 50 years of earning good money for retirement, and blame it on fatigue!! Why not tired after 20 years? Tirchee topi and the commercial fare that kept the kitchen running!! Wasn't that below dignity!! And now Web series to be 'active'. Not exhausting! Huh!

[@vikasshrivastava3575]

नसरुद्दीन से याद आया ये अतीक केस की "शाईस्ता" और गुड्डू मुस्लिम की कोई खबर नहीं आयी बहुत दिनों से.... .

[@prithvirajgirme9830]

goodbye again!!!

[@luckyme2619]

I think pakistaan is best suited place for him he will definitely enjoy there why you stayed here when jinnah made a country for muslims

[@vikasshrivastava3575]

नसरुद्दीन शाह से याद आया ये मुहब्बत के मसीहा अतीक केस की "शाईस्ता" और गुड्डू मुस्लिम की कोई खबर नहीं आयी बहुत दिनों से, सिर्फ दिल्ली के मुहब्बत के मसीहा "साहिल" की खबर आ रही है की मसीहा का "चाकू" पुलिस को नहीं मिल रहा है.

آپ کی بات غلط ہے کیونکہ یہ لوگ جو کرتے ہیں وہ شاہرخ بھی کر سکتا ہے اور بہت سی موویز میں کرکے بھی اس نے دکھایا ہے مگر جو شاہرخ کرتا ہے یہ لوگ اس کا آدھا بھی نہیں کر سکتے.

@Rajat Tyagicalling someone clown for just having an opinion,,,, wow

[@riyazahmed208]

Manoj baj pai the great actor has clearly said that two personalities have overwhelmingly impressed him 1Amitabh bachchan for the way he carried his stardom and his larger than life personality 2 Naseeruddin shah whose acting is at par with even the greatest actors hollywood has produced.

[@LuckyLucky-yy7qz]

@@riyazahmed208 I still don't understand why indians have to compare themselves with Americans for validation of being a good actor

[@vivekchoudhary9301]

​ mostly actor are clown indeed 😂

[@av1421]

sathiya gaya hai buddha

[@sukhbirsingh-dq7rc]

in hindsight, you were more impressive than naseer. kasam se.

[@darshan_gandhi_]

He is looking so old

[@fredrickdemello2260]

HOST IS A SANGHI

[@swarupgupta3679]

If he hates commercial cinema so much, he should give back every penny he earned from Tridev, Mohra, Sunayana, etc to a fund for film unit workers.

[@espere1239]

Pita hua frustrated desperately looking for work. So he and his wife vomiting against Sanatan. Keep crying…
