I liked Ghosh’s vision and the way he
explained things. It was to be shot in
Bangkok; the date structure was also

anything, I’d say it encouraged me to
work harder.
Which other directors inspire you to

Alternately, Shahzad Kashmiri
provides freedom and leverage and
asks you to play on the power of
spontaneity and improvisation.
someone who I look up to personally
and professionally and his work speaks
for itself. Mahira has been a game
changer for the industry. By referring
