Husainsaab leaves you in your own space. He never interferes. He gives you the liberty to interpret the scene in your own way. There is a lot of encouragement from him and everyone on the sets. They gave me time to do it.
If I got stuck, he would tell me why he wrote the scene and what he thought about the scene. There was a scene where the lines were very difficult. Their meaning was very deep.
Husain is not an abstract person. He just talks from somewhere deep. When he says something, you may

not relate to it instantly. He is three times my age and has more experience than me. There have been times when I would disagree with him in my mind. But a month later, I would understand what he had said.
There was never any yelling on the sets. If he did not like something, he would encourage and push you further. I have never seen him upset or angry. Even if he was, it would last only two minutes. He is a very happy man. A really bad day for him would be when he was less happy. I could feel it at times but I was too busy trying to do my job. He has the ability to look at things from a different perspective. He is very open. He never discourages anyone. He is never judgemental. There is never a right or wrong. Life is very precious to him. There is so much he wants to do. Husain's films are not abstract either. He is a student of cinema. He has been watching all kinds of cinema for the last 50 years. Just because he spoke a certain language in Gaja Gamini does not mean it will be the same in Meenaxi. The two films are very different. Meenaxi is like a beautiful poem. His third film [with Urmila Matondkar] will again have a new language. I have seen a lot of talented people like Santosh Sivan, Naseeruddin Shah, Tabu, Manoj Bajpai, Raghuvir Yadav and Husainsaab. They have different styles of working but they have one thing in common: depth. They are also very open to experiences in life.
