A Quote by Tena Desae

Sure, it can happen that the director sees you in a particular genre, and they like your work in that genre; they tend to think that you can only do well in that genre.
I came from advertising. For me it's about protecting the director's vision. That's always the goal. There's keeping things on budget and on time and dealing with selling the movie so that to me is a focus. But also it's about serving the script. We are genre filmmakers, those are the films we love to make, so my perspective is a little different.
With a good script a good director can produce a masterpiece; with the same script a mediocre director can make a passable film. But with a bad script even a good director can’t possibly make a good film. For truly cinematic expression, the camera and the microphone must be able to cross both fire and water. That is what makes a real movie. The script must be something that has the power to do this.
You pick projects for the part, the director, and the script. I just want to do different, interesting stuff.
Mainstream or budget films don't matter to me. What matters is the script, the director and the part, not necessarily in that order though.
I think with the smaller-scale projects, the burden for success falls more squarely on the shoulders of the actors and the director and the script.
The way I pick movies is, first, if the script is any good. Then, if the script is good, who else is in it, the director, the producer, all that. If you have all that, there's a chance the movie will be great. If the script isn't right, or the director or cast isn't right, you've got no shot in hell.
I'm all for art-house foreign directors - I think they make terrific films - and I'm also for the bigger budget movies. It just depends on what the character is, the director, the script.
I always choose my projects for the script or what the director want to tell with that story. And if I like the story.
I get involved with projects based on three parameters - the script, the actors involved and the director.
You always have to write script with a budget in mind. Although it's always good to write the big story, you really have to think about how things are going to work as far as cast, effects and settings. It's a process. You have to always think budget and then execute and make it happen.
Picking projects, it's always director first and then script. Those two things are pretty much head-to-head.
You can have an amazing director and terrible script, and the film's not going to be great. But if you have the most incredible script and an okay director, you could still get a really good film.
Ek Tha Tiger' was a great script, director and leading superstar of the film industry Salman Khan is part of it.
Can we call the essay its own genre if it's so promiscuously versatile? Can we call any genre a 'genre' if, when we read it from different angles and under different shades of light, the differences between it and something else start becoming indistinguishable?
I find that the projects I enjoy signing up to at the moment are with a director who's interested in the script - isn't completely sure what the movie is and isn't concerned about it. He's just interested in going on the journey and discovering it.
