Your career has been ear marked with different cinema. Is this a personality extension or this is just how you make films?
Movies eventually is about your personality traits, whether you talk about fear or the will or the desire or any kind of emotion ? every one of these are inherent in every human being. So when you pick up one specific thing, it becomes a genre film. Specific character, specific incident that can spark it of, it becomes a different thing.

How did Jiah happen to Nishabd?
From the very beginning I wanted a new girl which was my first reaction because somebody is coming into Amitabh Bachchan’s life and I thought even if a little known actress would come with a certain baggage which I thought here to be an opportunity to create and design a character which I thought would make a very specific impression on Mr. Bachchan’s character. So as long as, a new girl’s decision was made. After that ? Jiah I met her a couple of months or so before we were casting for Nishabd. And I thought that she had the ideal body language and she was almost like made for the part ? things just fell together.

What are the moral issues Nishabd will raise?
I don’t believe in morality. I am an immoral person. So I should be the last one to talk about the morality of Nishabd.

Tell us about the songs of Nishabd.
