'I am interested in a super-hero film with a strong political tone'

What do you think went wrong with Maya Bazaar?

It was not my kind of film. But it was my entry into the mainstream industry. It was not my story. It was brought to me by the producer. I wrote the screenplay and dialogues for it. But it was a publicity disaster.

The curiosity level of the audience was generated. The idea of Kubera was new -- nobody had attempted the theme of Kubera and I was the first one to do it. However, the rest of the story was burdened by cliches and we couldn't get the younger crowd in to the theatres.

Are you working on your next project?

I am taking a break. There are three-four projects. One is a literary adaptation, the other two are stories of mine. But I need to take a decision on what I want to do. I am interested in a super-hero film with a strong political tone -- a blend of the the mythical with the socio-political but not in a didactic way.
