I feel I should direct a film but not right now I am not ready but in future I will direct a film," Riteish told reporters in a group interview.
- As a producer, he has received his first National Award for his second Marathi movie Yellow produced by him at the 61st National Film Awards ceremony on May 3.

Being aware is important and having an opinion is very important," said Riteish who made his Bollywood acting debut with Tujhe Meri Kasam in 2003. The film also helped him find his soul mate in his co-star Genelia D’Souza, with whom he tied the knot in 2012.
