TV Too Small For Me, Says Subhash Ghai

Darpan News Desk IANS, 30 Jun, 2015 12:13 PM
    While most big production banners and filmmakers have tried their hand at TV, which they consider no more a "small screen" now, filmmaker Subhash Ghai says he is too big for the 'idiot box'.
     
    Ghai's past few directorial ventures, including "Black & White" and "Yuvvraaj", didn't do well at the box office, but TV is not something that excites him.
     
    Asked why doesn't he try making something for the TV, Ghai told IANS: "I don't think that I can go on to make a TV show because TV is too small for me. I have made films for larger than life things."
     
    "I would rather go for education and cinema, promote classical music, dance and our ancient culture - which are big things rather than making shows."
     
    In the past, Ghai has made films as varied as "Karz", "Ram Lakhan", "Khalnayak", "Saudagar" and "Taal".
