I don't consciously work out strategies and 'phases' for my films. I've reached a stage in my career where I just tell the story that I want to. I do my best along with the director. I don't think about the end-results.
But yes, I do want to say things in my films that have a social relevance. Paheli talks about the loneliness of a rural wife who's left behind by her husband.
Again, you think the film will work?
Swades may not have been a blockbuster. But I'm proud of it. Likewise Paheli. It's targeted at an audience that would like to see more than just songs and dances, though there are plenty of those, and I'm proud of them. If you are in love, you'll like Paheli.
