Madhur Bhandarkar is brimming with ideas for his next movie

While on clashes, two diverse films - Rajkumar Santoshi's AJAB PREM KI GHAZAB KAHANI and Madhur Bhandarkar's JAIL - will vie for public attention on 6th November. "Both are diverse in terms of content. AJAB PREM KI GHAZAB KAHANI is a rom-com, while JAIL is a hard-hitting film," Madhur tells me.
Madhur, however, denies that JAIL is based on Sanjay Dutt's life. "It's not! Nor is it based on Alistair Pereira's life. Parag Dixit [the protagonist in JAIL, portrayed by Neil Nitin Mukesh] is fictionalised character and bears no similarity with anyone," Madhur clarifies.
The supremely talented film-maker feels that it's important to say a new story in every film. "I'd love to make a love story next. Or a comedy. Also, it would be interesting to explore the story of fading actresses. How they cope with life, when their career is over and the fans have disappeared... that's a interesting thought, isn't it?," he asks. Would be interesting to see Madhur try out new genres.
