Your next release on 24th 'Pinjar' is being talked about!
Yes, I am looking forward to the release of 'Pinjar'. It is the story of the Indian Partition between 1946 and 1948 and how various people and families got affected. Rather than a patriotic film, 'Pinjar' is more of an emotional film. I haven't recited any stereotypical 'deshbhakti' dialogues in this movie!

Would you classify 'Pinjar' as an art or commercial film?
It's a sensible and well-made commercial film! It has mainstream artistes. It's been made on an extravagant budget so you can't call it an art film under any circumstance.

'Pinjar' is based on Amrita Pritam's novel. How much of the original novel has been retained in the movie?
The entire story and dialogues have been retained. Nothing has been played around with or tampered.
