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!
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.
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!
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.
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.
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
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!!
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...
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! :)
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.
+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.
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.
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.
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!
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!!
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.
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.
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.
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!
This kid deserves an Oscar. He had never acted before, he learnt to swim at 18 FOR THIS ROLE, he had to act by himself with a PRETEND tiger. Like, fine, if you don't give him an Oscar, give him a nomination.
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.
Angel often inspires me in a dream poems and songs and flyings . He talks with my as soon as I close my eyes.1.Ship sank in the book in 4 am near the Hawaiian islands over Maria depression - and Apophis will fall in 4 am.Book was written in 2002 and the fall of Apophis calculated in the U.S. A. only in 2004 . A war between Russia and Germany also began at 4 am and lasted 4 years 22.06.1941-09.05.1945.
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!
Suraj is a charming young man who I know will go very far. This interview really exposes all of the naivety that a first time actor has, despite being the star of such a critically acclaimed film.
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 ;)]
Suraj is amazing, he nailed the role of Pi. And Ang Lee did such a fantastic job I thought the film was better than the book. I kind of liked the interviewer's enthusiasm, to be honest.
the interviewer looks like he ate his cereal with redbull and coffee instead of milk
🤣🤣🤣
Suraj is just so adorable!
wtach him in god friended me ;)
Suraj is my new idol.

He's such an amazing actor
Suraj is so cuteeeee
Suraj is really amazing and he has the best laugh. Luv him loads
suraj is so freakin' cute!!!
why the interviewer in so much hurry.. is he running late for a flight?
shobhit todi schedule is an important word in the 8 minute interviews that almost all television channels invest into.
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.

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!
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.
he is such a courageous and wise boy
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.
Just out of Delhi university and gaining major success internationally, you're my idol Suraj! For making our country proud :)

I love how Suraj just gives up explaining the movie set and says, "Ang is a genius"
I love you suraj sharma. I will watch all your movies you act in:D
'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.....
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...
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!
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! :)

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

Aww, he's so cute! I love the way he speaks! And how passionate he is about his work.
Life of Pi opens in Philippine theaters on January 8, 2013.. cant wait.
On my 3rd and am just noticing that the movie is over 2 hrs. long. Showed it to my family and they loved it.
I'm actually watching it now lol at the same time. but I paused it to watch this
" But Columbus was sailing for India."- π Amazing movie!
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.
He's so cuuute

Props to Ang Lee as well for making this masterpiece
I wish Jake had a talk show, hes the best interviewer I've seen in a long time.
Suraj Sharma for Aladdin Live Action👍
Aladdin is not indian but arabian
Suraj is such a great and an adorable actor. He gave complete justice to the character as Pi.
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!!
it's what you're feeling not what you're seeing.

I am in love with this movie.
seriously you are really good in this interview, you brought suraj out of his shell as a first time actor doing junkets
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.

RAWWWWR , Ive seen the trailer like 20 times and the movie isnt released in cinemas till January 1st, i cant wait
i agree. it was a lovely interview. i think jake is just so good at making anyone feel comfortable
Life of Pi was so powerful....this is what real art is all about !!!
the fact that paradise was in this video made it 20x better than it already was
I like the way he speak...not the accent but he just sounds honest and not rehearsed like most hollywood trash actors
Sharma deserves the Oscar for this film.
these interviews always make me more excited for a movie. ALWAYS.
Suraj seems like a really cool, down to earth young dude. Hope to see him in more stuff!
India is one the the top English speaking countries...
This kid deserves an Oscar. He had never acted before, he learnt to swim at 18 FOR THIS ROLE, he had to act by himself with a PRETEND tiger. Like, fine, if you don't give him an Oscar, give him a nomination.
Wonderful movie we need more like this one
Great movie, great acting...an amazing movie from director Ang Lee..a masterpiece.
That interviewer is on speed! - a fake display if I ever saw one...
One of the better films that Ive seen in a while.
I am so glad that i didn't watch this video before the movie. I thought everything was real !OMG Beautiful !!!
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.
Incredible film. I was extremely moved.

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!
