sriram raghavan - ur views...

just wanted to open up a discussion topic for sriram raghavan, one of those tragically under-hyped(not underrated) directors of the country....Started off with Ek hasina thi, then came up with Johnny gaddar..and is now getting ready with agent vinod.

His genre of films has always been edgy and racy thrillers, with a rock solid script, screenplay and terrific performances. They are very "guy type" films and have a heavy influence of Quentin Tarantino's style of film-making. But his efforts are always original and creative. The way he uses technical departments like cinematography, sound recording, background music etc is just incredible...i think hes one director who can sure balance both style and substance beautifully...

what are ur views about him as a director/writer??Do u like his kind of films? Are u looking forward to agent vinod??

Do share ur views.

lensa...i dunt think his films reached a lot of ppl coz they were essentially small budget ones with an ordinary starcast....so ppl might not have been interested in watching them dismissing them as "just another bollywood muvie trying to ape hollywood" like most of the muvies produced by the bhatt camp do...

either ways,...agent vinod has a big budget and a good star cast...hopefully, tht should get him exposure, and give him the recognition he deserves.

Ek haseena was such an awesome movie... So was Johny gadar...

Looking forward to Agent Vinod... Just hope that working with big stars big budgets does not dilute the simpicity and the edginess seen in his movies....
