'Tamasha' is the kind of film that will grow on people: Imtiaz Ali

Mumbai: Imtiaz Ali is doing his rounds of theatres and getting reactions from youngsters about his film 'Tamasha'. He does this self-reviewing exercise after every film. Talking about the reactions he got from youngsters he said, "You get to witness honest reactions, the effect of what you have done on people. I am more pleased with the reactions from the younger audience as they dig in deep into the movie. Today in Delhi a girl told me, thank you for making films that are relevant to us. The youngsters are connecting to the turmoil, which Ved and Tara go through. All of these things that were supposed to be unsafe in the movie, these are the things people are connecting with. Two people said they liked Rockstar more, one girl said she didn't like the film. I saw the last one hour of the film at Priya Cinema in Delhi and it was awesome! The audience were laughing, whistling and screaming."

He feels that the audience expected the film to be fluffy. "I think they wanted the film to be more fluffy. I met a guy who had gone for a date and he was disappointed because after the film they ended up having an intense discussion about the film."
