Hirani is overrated. His films are accessible to everyone and that is his plus point. Otherwise his films are not some intelligent, thought-provoking masterpieces as they are made out to be. They are decent comic dramas. that is it! Munnabhai films were his best, followed by 3i.

But this is a good list!
My favorite would be Vishal Bhardwaj, Mani Ratnam, Ashutosh, Imtiaz, Dibaker, Rajiv menon among others.
