RECENTLY you trashed Ketan Mehta, called his Flms "utter rot". Such condemnation for your Mirch Masala director?
How could you associate yourself with a disaster like Hero Hiralal If you had no faith In the director or tile film?
You pursue serious theatre, but scoff at serious cinema. Do you see a dichotomy there?
What about Mrinal Sen?
What of middle-of-the-road filmmakers like Muzaffat Ali ?
And Shyam Benegal?
So do we have any good filmmakers in the country?
Why don't you take up cudgels? Change this?
As an actor how do you choose your work? Are you disappointed or elated with the work you do?
Do you have any film assignments in India?
