Dabangg has been the biggest hit of the year so far. Do you feel no 1ish?
I was never in that race. One Friday a film called Dabangg came which no one wanted to buy initially. Everyone said pagal ho gaye hain (you are crazy), making a rural film, kya title hai and other such things. The film came and did well. So there are no hard and fast rules. If the film had not done well, they would have said, "See we had said so..."
Anil Kapoor joked and said that he hoped you would not say anything about his film the way you did about Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Guzaarishโฆ
I never said anything about Bhansali's movie. I spoke about my first film with him Khamoshi โ The Musical. It didn't run although it was critically acclaimed. No one came to see it in the theatres. When people watched the film on DVD or on satellite channels, they said, "Such an amazing film! Why did this film not do well?" Dude you are sitting at home, doing nothing, watching the film for phukat but when the film was in the theatres, you thought who will go see a film on the hearing impaired? So there was no excitement. Today going to a theatre is a good six-hour task. It's like going for a picnic. If you are gonna make them cry, they should enjoy that crying. They should enjoy the drama or the action you are showing. If you are going to see something that you will enjoy then half the battle is won. If I want to entertain I do cinema, if I want to send across a message, I tweet.
