Farah Khan, who last directed Happy New Year (2014) with Shah Rukh Khan and Deepika Padukone, is now gearing up to work on her next directorial venture. Though there is no official word on what she is making next, rumours are rife in the industry that the choreographer-turned-filmmaker is planning to remake the 1982 cult film Satte Pe Satta. She has teamed up with hit filmmaker Rohit Shetty for her next.
On Tuesday, Farah Khan said that she and Rohit Shetty are perhaps the last two directors in the Hindi film industry who want to make the movies that they used to watch as kids. “I feel people get scared to make these big musicals because right now the situation is such that it is said, ‘Don’t do this, critics will cut it. Don’t do that, that will happen. Maybe Rohit and I are the last two who want to make the movies that we used to watch as kids and the ones that we still remember, the ones that were happy films,” said Farah.
The filmmaker, who is also exploring the web-space by producing a Netflix film caller Mrs Serial Killer, said she loves watching films of different kinds from all across the world. “Love for cinema cannot be for only a certain type of film. I am a foodie for cinema. I watch all kinds of movies, from Polish, Swedish to French and they are absolutely fantastic. My sensibilities are such that I make pan-Indian films which would run from B centre to A plus (centres). That’s a difficult thing to do because you have to please one billion people. It’s easy to make a film that pleases 10,000 people,” she added.
“Rohit makes films that are enjoyable. They have a social message, they are not vulgar. The same goes for me. It’s just that we like to make larger-than-life films, the trend of which is fading away slowly. My attempt has always been to make films that have repeat value like that of Manmohan Desai and Nasir Hussain,” she concluded.
