Failure worries me; nobody wants to fail. There is a fear that one day, films will not come my way, or if someone doesn't watch your film, that is a worrying point. It is unpredictable in the industry.

For me, utter failure is to make a film that people pay their money to go see and they don't like.

And as a filmmaker, I'm trying to unhook myself from this idea that unless you have a brilliant, long, enormously lucrative theatrical run, that your movie somehow failed. And I don't believe that.

I like movies about failing.

I have had unsuccessful films, but I learned a lot from those films. I give my failures as much importance as my success.

I have always tried to make profitable films because people's offices shut down if films fail, and I will do everything to avoid that.

I figured, if I failed, I'd tried something that I hadn't tried before and if one movie was going to destroy my career than I didn't have much of a career to start with. I just went for it. God willing I wasn't over the top and didn't embarrass myself.

My film directorial career has been nothing but repetition of one failure after another!
