Tags: Age, Music, PoetryThe only solutions that are ever worth anything are the solutions that people find themselves.
Tags: Solutions, Themselves, WorthI wouldn't mind taking a rest for three or four months, but I have to keep on making films for the sake of my crew, who just wait for the next film because they're not on a fixed salary.
Tags: Keep, Mind, WaitI think they quite like me when I work because I'm one of the safer directors to back, because even if my films don't bring their costs in back home, once they're shown outside of India they manage to cover the costs.
Tags: Home, Once, WorkMy films play only in Bengal, and my audience is the educated middle class in the cities and small towns. They also play in Bombay, Madras and Delhi where there is a Bengali population.
Tags: Audience, Films, SmallSometimes a director is making three films. Perhaps he is shooting a film in Madras and a film in Bombay and he can't leave Madras as some shooting has to be done, so he directs by telephone. The shooting takes place. On schedule.
Tags: Done, Place, SometimesThe conception of background music is changing. You use less and less of it these days.
Tags: Days, Less, MusicYou cannot go beyond a certain limit in your expenditure if you want to bring back money from your local market, which is very small after Pakistan.
Tags: After, Money, SmallMost of the top actors and actresses may be working in ten or twelve films at the same time, so they will give one director two hours and maybe shoot in Bombay in the morning and Madras in the evening. It happens.
Tags: Evening, Morning, TimeWhen I write an original story I write about people I know first-hand and situations I'm familiar with. I don't write stories about the nineteenth century.
Tags: Stories, Story, WriteI was interested in both Western and Indian classical music.
Tags: Both, Interested, MusicThere is a ban on Indian films in Pakistan, so that's half of our market gone.
Tags: Films, Gone, HalfThere's always some room for improvisation.
Tags: RoomI had developed this habit of writing scenarios as a hobby. I would find out which stories had been sold to be made into films and I would write my own treatment and then compare it.
Tags: Films, Write, WritingI've made seventeen or eighteen films now, only two of which have been original screenplays, all the others have been based on short stories or novels, and I find the long short story ideal for adaptation.
