Sanjay Leela Bhansali: I've given my all to Ram-Leela

Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali is known for captivating audience from his extra ordinary sets in his previous films and now he has again set a benchmark. His colour in upcoming Ram-Leela is red, which is the colour of love and the director’s say on the same is, “The colour palette is red because after the Catholic colours of Black and Guzaarish and the Muslim green of Saawariya, I wanted to move into a new zone.” The director says that he looked at Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet for making this film and he has given everything for this, “I've given my all to Ram-Leela and couldn't make it better if given another chance.”

Sanjay is making an action film for the first time and comments, “I can't live in my comfort zone forever. It's really funny because till date, action in my movies hasn't gone beyond a slap.” This time, he has come out of his genre and as per the tag line ‘Goliyon ki raas leela’, the film is packed with violence; Violence intertwined with love story. Bhansali didn’t forget appreciating Deepika and stated, “She's graceful, outspoken yet very teekhi. Deepika has a lovely swan-like neck but her head is firmly on her shoulders. I connect to an actor, then I give a part of myself to that actor.”

The director feels himself blessed and remarks that nobody ever doubted my ability orintention, “All my films have made money.” Sanjay also cleared lastly on his depressing genre of films and said that he is a fun-loving guy and his work is not his depression, “I talk of difficult moments in my characters' lives, but they overcome it. It's not depression. People have this perception that I make mad, sad films but my films are about love.” The upcoming Ranveer Singh and Deepika Padukone starrer Ram-Leela is all set to release on November 15 and the maker is prepared to direct his next entitled Gabbar.
