Facts/General Knowledge
- Shahrukh Khan attended his 60th birthday party and talked about Anand. He mentioned,
He is also my spiritual guru. He understands Vaastu, so when one of my films doesn’t do well, I call him to change things in my house. I say, ‘Sir, my Pichli picture didn’t work, do something.’ And he suggests moving a mirror around. But luckily my films are going on.”
- In an interview he discussed what he looks for before investing in films. In the interview he said,
I look at every project from the audience’s perspective and so stories that say something new matter to me. As a creator, I don’t want to repeat the cliché that ‘content is king’ but it really is. Only a compelling story, well-crafted characters and creative execution can make audiences remember a film despite the abundance of content available to us today. As someone who loves big-screen entertainment, I also enjoy creating visual extravaganzas, but making sure the production values and grandeur enhance rather than replace strong narratives. Be it a building, a film or a series, if the foundation is weak then it is sure to crash. So I am willing to invest my time and resources in any project where the story is solid and can provide an unforgettable cinematic experience.
