| | Planet Bollywood - Features - An open letter to Naseeruddin Shah (Site not responding. Last check: ) |
 | | Shah is, if you loved the script - which has four parallel stories running, at a plain reading, the stories must have been interesting enough and narrative flow must have been smooth enough - what was the need, in that case Mr.Shah, to arbitrarily change all the stories and screw up the entire narrative structure? |
 | | Just as you have built your reputation and goodwill, for thirty odd years, with a certain quality of acting, I too have built my reputation and goodwill as a writer of the stuff of certain quality, for thirty odd years, with twenty one plays, more than 5000 performances, in three languages and in five countries. |
 | | Hundreds of talented people, who trusted you and slogged on this project, thousands of people world over who are passionate about Indian cinema and who are concerned about the lack of good, original scripts, a generation of writers who may be contemplating screen writing, and above all, the posterity, they all will ask these questions. |
