I would love to make a documentary on my father, Mahesh Bhatt. What is interesting about Bhatt sahab is that he became more interesting personality after he left work.
From Alia Bhatt to Pooja Bhatt and Mahesh Bhatt, everyone was involved with me in the making of 'Tum se hi.'
During the late 1980s, I was in Delhi finishing my college and modeling. After reading an article that my mother wrote for a fashion glossy, Mahesh Bhatt sahab expressed the desire meet her. That's when he saw my pictures and asked whether I would want to work in Hindi films.
I began as an assistant director to Mahesh Bhatt sahab on films like 'Zulm,' 'Kabza' and 'Aawargi' during the '80s. Then I got an opportunity to act and I took it up thinking direction was something which I could always pursue later.
Especially when you work with people like Mahesh Bhatt, you can't go wrong.
I did 'Daddy' when I was 17 years old. My father, Mahesh Bhatt, directed the movie, and he cast me.
I absolutely loved working with Mahesh Bhatt. He and I were so much in tune that he would just press a button and I would start.
Whatever little films I did, I got to work with big names like Aditya Chopra, Mohit Suri and Mahesh Bhatt.
Mahesh Bhatt introduced me to the world of films.
It was Mahesh Bhatt saab's idea to get Shraddha to sing 'Galliyan.' I was all for it.
Mahesh Bhatt has been a great influence in many people's lives. The vibe he brings onto the set is very positive.
My first Hindi film as a leading man was Mahesh Bhatt's 'Saaransh,' which immediately established me as someone who knows the craft.
There are very few people, like Mukesh and Mahesh Bhatt, Bhushan Kumar, and even Yash Chopra, with whom I have worked, who understand music.
I would love to work with Alia Bhatt. I think she is very talented and has been really good in all her films.
I have stepped into a bigger league with 'Khamoshiyaan,' and I am grateful to Mahesh Bhatt sir. I am also grateful to myself for being patient.
My father, Haridutt Bhatt, was a teacher by profession.
Mahesh Bhatt has changed me a lot. I used to be very held back with my words. He has made me open up. He has taught me how to say what comes to my mind, just as he does.
