His latest film going to be released is “My husband’s Wife”. In a conversation with him at his office in Om Heera Panna, he shared his few thoughts…
What all questions have you raised in “My husband’s Wife”?
I believe that we make films for the entertainment of the common man but with entertainment if we can also provide some knowledge and morals to the society then it’s like cherry on the cake. In this context my film “My Husband’s wife” is a very beautiful film as compared to my previous films.
In today’s scenario there is an increase culture in Punjab and Gujarat and in some other parts of India that parents want their daughter to get married to an NRI. It is like a status symbol to them. But these daughters of India as daughter- in –law there has to undergo a lot of harassment and difficulties that it really fills the hearts. It is very heart touching issues and is very close to my heart and I believe it part of my experience. For a girl being born in India and brought up in Indian culture and traditions and when undergoes the experience of seeing her husband being in an affair, what biggest punishment it could be for a married women.
In our film we have tried we have tried to show is in a simple manner that I feel proud to this film. This is a first film of its own type on such issue.
Pawan Rakhi, Aliza, Prem Chopra, Rati Aghinotri, Arun Bakshi, Vidya Sharma & Shakti Kapoor and lead actors are new in my film.
The lead actors in your film are new, so are you not in favor of celebrities are important to attract the people to theater?
Movies released last year, wrote a new history, that the films starring super stars did not do well whereas the films with new leads and subjects were really appreciated. This is more than enough for people like me and be motivated. Though on the name of big stars caste people come to theater but if the film is weak they leave the hall in between, we can’t turn our faces from the truth.
What are the other attractions of the film?
In my film we have promoted the culture and traditions of Punjab, the rituals of marriage and Lohri in a beautiful way.
