Javed Akhtar:
I think the film industry has not given him his due. He was an extremely talented director and way ahead of his times.

His films were path-breaking. Moreover, he was very educated and an intelligent person.

Whenever I used to speak with him, I used to feel good. He was a very good talker and one could discuss with him on a lot of subjects besides films.

The film industry will never be the same without him.
