For some reason I think that ARR is not getting the kind of
projects he deserve at this point of his career.
ARR must work with the directors and the team which thrive
for absolute class in movie industry.
The projects which can really give him a chance to explore
new domains and reinforce his legendary status.
For now I am only heavily banking on Jodha Akbar for his
artistic expression. ATM and few other movies are there
but they will be more commercial than the scope for
aesthetic wizardry. Whatever ARR does, Ghazini will surly
raise comparison with the former version and there will be players
on either side of the game.
And sorry but I expect the least with SJS film.
Again..I am not very comfortable with the fact that HE
shared credits with Craig Armstrong for The Golden Age.
Unfortunately Chamki Chameli is shelved..isnt it?
