I hate Bollywood. The movies are all garbage, just terrible. It's my opinion; obviously, there are billions who like and love them. I don't like all the singing, dancing and all the dramatic crying. I have never seen a Bollywood film in my life. Russell Peters billionbollywoodcry share on social

Indians are the second largest population in the world, but we're invisible on TV - everything is either black or white. Russell Peters blackindianinvisible Change image and share on social
People always say 'You do racial comedy.' And I don't, exactly. I do cultural comedy. Because race and culture are two different things. There's black people from America and then there's black people from Africa. Racially, they're the same; culturally, they're extremely different. Russell Peters africaamericablack share on social
There's a big difference between race and culture. Because racially, I'm an Indian man. Culturally, not at all. Russell Peters bigculturallyculture Change image and share on social
On my best day, I cannot do Scottish people. I don't even believe that's a real accent, to be honest with you. I think they probably sound like us when they're in the house. It's how they keep people away from them. Russell Peters accentdayhonest share on social
I talk about race and culture, and that's what my fans respond to. If you grew up in an environment where race and culture were never an issue for you, or where you don't see the humor in our so-called differences, then you might not respond to what I'm doing.

If you look good, you can act in a Bollywood movie, you don't have to be able to act; and Aishwarya Rai is a great example of this. She is a beautiful woman... You look at her, I want to look at her. Damn, she is fine; but stop acting or stop trying to act. Russell Peters actaishwaryabeautiful share on social
