After' Kaagaz Ke Phool' flopped, which flopped miserably in those days, we immediately started work on 'Chaudhvin Ka Chand.'
When 'Chaudhvin Ka Chand' was released, it was a big success and very well appreciated. At that time, colour films had just started to be made, and Guru Dutt decided to take the title song of the film, shoot it in colour and rerelease it with new fanfare.

We were facing a financial crunch in the early 1970s because Mera Naam Joker' didn't work and we suffered huge losses due to that. My father was very fond of Mera Naam Joker' and made it with a lot of passion, love and money according to those days. But it flopped.
I began working with a family camera. It was called a Kodak Autographic, which was one of those things where you flopped it open and pulled out the bellows. And I've been at it ever since; I've never stopped.

No one is infallible. I am not the only director who has flopped.
'Aiyyaa' flopped, but it got me noticed.
When I'm home I'm in much more of a routine like I said, which I like. On the road everything gets flip-flopped.
When my first film flopped, I got damn depressed.
When I composed a song on Bhagat Singh, it flopped. But my other songs about partying and all that are superhits!
Yes, I am a failed playwright. I had three shows on Broadway by the time I was 30. They all flopped, and I fled.
Starting a company is rough. It's even harder when you're young - I know this firsthand, because my first company flopped when I was 25.
