"I WOULD RATHER GO FOR EDUCATION AND CINEMA, PROMOTE CLASSICAL MUSIC, DANCE AND OUR ANCIENT CULTURE - WHICH ARE BIG THINGS RATHER THAN MAKING SHOWS," MR GHAI SAID.

While most big production banners and filmmakers have tried their hand at TV, filmmaker Subhash Ghai says he is too big for the 'idiot box'.

Mr Ghai's past few ventures including Black & White and Yuvvraaj, didn't do well at the box office, but TV is not something that excites him.

When asked why he didn't try his hand at making something for the small screen, Mr Ghai said, "I don't think that I can go on to make a TV show because TV is too small for me. I have made films for larger than life things."

"I would rather go for education and cinema, promote classical music, dance and our ancient culture - which are big things rather than making shows," he added.

Not a huge fan of him. I liked taal and pardes but he is right! TV is limited in terms of concepts. Its either Saas Bahu or love hate stories. Hardly any different themes sell to the audience.
