Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra tells Sunday MiD DAY why it's a tragedy that Hindi cinema doesn't publish its screenplays
Amongst your personal collection of screenplays, which are your favourites?
I own so many screenplay books that are great, like (Michelangelo) Antonioni's L'avventura, M Night Shyamalan's The Sixth Sense and (Quentin Tarantino's) Pulp Fiction. But my top three are (Orson Welles's) Citizen Kane, Fredrico Fellini's 8 u00bd and Jean-Luc Godard's Breathless.
So will you publish the screenplay of 3 Idiots?
Hundred per cent. When I die, I want to leave behind wonderful movies and good screenplays. When I'm old, I want to lie on my bed, read the screenplays and think, "Life was worthwhile. We did well."u00a0
