Pradeep Sarkar to make film on his experiences?

Darpan News Desk IANS, 28 Aug, 2014 08:03 AM
    After "Mardaani", director Pradeep Sarkar is toying with the idea of making a movie inspired by some of his real life experiences. He says it's half-written as of now.
     
    Asked if he would want to make a film based on his real life experiences, he said: "Yes, there is one which has been in my mind for a while. It is half written. It's very complicated. I would like to make it, but it's too early to talk about it."
     
    Before "Mardaani", Sarkar made films like "Laaga Chunari Mein Daag" and "Lafangey Parindey", which didn't perform at the box office as expected.
     
    "My condition was very bad after that. I didn't know what to do. I used to be so sad and upset with the whole thing, but I am thankful to the media who didn't criticize much about it. I used to feel extremely bad and low.
     
    "But, now I am feeling better with 'Mardaani'. However, now I get too scared to be too happy and just hope this happiness stays for a long time," he said.
     
    "Mardaani" features Rani Mukerji in the role of a police officer on a mission against child trafficking.
