3.Reasons behind long gaps between
your projects?
It has to appeal to me and only then will
I go ahead and write a script on it and
hence the gap.
4.Have you decided on your next
project?
I intend to work on one of veteran Malayalam
writer Thakazhy Sivasankara Pillai's stories
much in the lines of this film but a different
premise altogether.
5. Your advice for the younger
generation!
I would recommend them to read a lot as
that is the last thing they want to do these
days. They are glued to the TV screens or
the Internet which is a result of assembly
line production and they do not search for
information by themselves anymore but rely
on Internet, which in itself is a machine
with information fed in by humans and will
only offer what it has within its gamut.
We need to break this addiction and they
have to be more sincere and committed towards
their dreams.
It was an interesting and enlightening
conversation with this legendary filmmaker
who has won several awards including the
Dada Saheb Phalke award for his contribution
towards Indian cinema. He has won National
Awards in various categories for 8 of his
films and was conferred the Padma Vibushan
recently.
