[quote]People should appreciate Saawariya for being different. Who says we all have to make the same kind of cinema? [/quote]
Why should people accept something just because it is different? If that was the case then every "different" film would be a masterpiece. People would appreciate a film if they feel connected to it in any form. Didn't people appreciate Black? Wasn't Khamoshi critically acclaimed even though it failed at boxoffice?
[quote] I didn't spend the money on costumes for 40 stars. I didn't go to Manhattan or whichever foreign location other filmmakers are heading to these days to shoot. [/quote]
Oh dear! Instead of talking about his film he is taking shots at so many other films😛 and calling it senseless and then in the same breath questions others of putting his film down. He thinks going to Manhattan is lame but painting everything Blue and asking people to accept it is true art.
[quote] Great cinema should be kept away from such reviewers. According to me, every one who has worked in my film has raised the bar for the movie experience in this country. Gags and jokes at senior actors do not make a film great. Cinema is not about laughing at legends. [/quote]
Directors of "great cinema" shouldn't take shots at other "substandard" films.
[quote]No, I don't see other people's films. [/quote]
😆😆😆 Someone is hurt and a spoilsport.
[quote]I've got a big opening. No other filmmaker would've got that against a Shah Rukh Khan film, and it's a big deal. [/quote]
Why is everyone so scared of one 5'7" blabbermouth guy with no great film family backing? Seriously when I read such things I want to respect this guy for believing in his type of cinema and coming up with serious author-backed role in CDI and then going totally goofy in OSO and winning audience both times. When he talks it actually works and never goes vain.
[quote]My films is about art, and OSO is about commerce.[/quote]
And No Smoking was about Science.😛
[quote]Sanjay, it's time for you to make an international film, they will appreciate and value your work.' [/quote]
