What people are saying
I really want to get these films done (Brahmastra 2, Animal 2 and Ramayana Part 2), and really get on floors with my directorial debut within 2 or 3 years, I hope.
I just started writing a script a couple of months back, and it’s so hard to create.
I would say like a feel-good family drama.
I am dying to direct a movie.
