It's not easy to come out of your comfort zone and helm a film in a completely new genre. But Madhur Bhandarkar has done just that and admits that he's taken a "huge risk" by doing the romantic comedy Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji instead of his trademark movies on contemporary issues.
"I've taken a huge risk with this film, but I feel proud of it. I'm sure people will appreciate [it]. They have given me love and liked my work all these years," Bhandarkar said.
"Some didn't even do well at the box office, but they were critically acclaimed and got the respect they needed. So I'm sure they [audiences] will shower the same love for Dil Toh Bachcha Hai Ji because when they see the film they will feel Madhur Bhandarkar's stamp and signature style is very evident in the film."
The film stars Ajay Devgn, Omi Vaidya and Emraan Hashmi. It revolves around the different experiences that these three men go through in love.
Actresses Shruti Hassan, Shraddha Das and Shahzan Padamsee play pivotal roles. "I never plan a film gender-based. I wanted to make this film so I did and there are women characters in this film too with very well etched out roles, but definitely it is dominated by [a] male point of view.
"Let's see if people realise that Madhur can give a very good male point of view as well," the filmmaker said.
