An important factor responsible for my theatre fascination is the fact that I live just two blocks from Prithiv Theatre in other words the Mecca for stage artists and enthusiasts. Prithiv Theatre has been responsible for showcasing the best plays by theatre groups from all over India and is affiliated with well-known personalities of the Theatre world. Actors/writers like Kay Kay Menon, Makrand Deshpande, Imtiaz Ali, etc. consider the experience gained as a theatre artist and the time spent at Prithiv to be the main reason for their success today. In the recent times, thanks to involvement from the corporate world loads of theatre groups have been able to get over the financial hurdle to some extent but on the other hand some have had to compromise on their aesthetics qualities in other to fit in their sponsor’s interests.

I loved Imtiaz's film Socha Na Tha and even gifted this film VCD to a friend, who was going to a country which did not have access to Hindi films. Many years ago, I hade worked with him for a pilot episode of a serial, in Delhi and can vouch for his calmness. As a novice, once I found myself with a clapperboard and no clue as to what I was supposed to do. (the production manager who left it in my hand promising to instruct me had diappeared). So, when the director called for the clap, I ran in front of the camera and clapped before the sound and visuals equipment had started operating. It was followed by some 'sophisticated' abuses. In a similar situation, when I almost shouted "Cut" due to an imagined non-existing continuity problem, Imtiaz looked at me once and then away and never mentioned it in his interactions or behaviour. From this interview, I can see that it is this quality of being unruffled from within which stood him in good stead for making his first film. I came to this site in the hope of... Before that let me tell you about a frustrating loss I suffered recently. I lost his number with a cell phone. So once again... I came to this site in the hope of getting his number once again. I hope Imtiaz himself reads this message and calls me so that I have his number once again. He's has my number. I also wish the writer reminds him to read this article. Hi!
