When I'm Shooting On Location, You Get Ideas On The Spot - New Angles. You Make Not Major Changes But Important Modifications, That You Can't Do On A Set. I Do That Because You Have To Be Economical.

Sometimes 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.

I Mix Indian Instruments With Western Instruments All The Time.

I 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.

Well The Bombay Film Wasn't Always Like How It Is Now. It Did Have A Local Industry. There Were Realistic Films Made On Local Scenes. But It Gradually Changed Over The Years.
