That he accomplished with My Brother... Nikhil. Now, the filmmaker is back with his new movie Sorry Bhai starring Sanjay Suri, Chitrangada Singh, Sharman Joshi, Shabana Azmi and Boman Irani.

He chats with Nithya Ramani about his journey into Bollywood, My Brother... Nikhil and his upcoming projects.

How did you start off in Bollywood?

I came to Mumbai with the dream of becoming a director. It was very difficult. I was working on various music videos as well as writing scripts. My first story has not been filmed yet due to unavoidable reasons. My third script was Bas Ek Pal and my fifth was My Brother... Nkhil.

All my scripts involved edgy subjects which did not get any financers. Then there were creative differences like making changes in the script or casting a glamorous actress for a role that does not require such trappings or asking someone else to direct my film.

I am not the type who would run behind stars to beg them to do my film. I would prefer working with those who would like to work with me.
