I loved Rishi's answer to this question. It's from an interview he did for some magazine
What about the new generation of directors who makes different films?
If you're referring to the so-called intellectual, art cinema, then let me tell you that it takes art to sing, dance around trees and make love too.
I won't take names but some of these so-called art films don't even deserve to be shown on Doordarshan.
Anything that is entertaining is art cinema. we are a country of hero worships. In a circus, everybody loves the clown not the guy who picks up the gobar at the end of the show.
