“I am not a regular filmmaker. I take a lot of time to write a particular script. I make films on issues which we face everyday but tend to ignore it. My films are for common man and any actor can serve the lead. I will never compromise my film in order to take Bollywood stars. I am really not interested,” Rajat said.
The versatile actor is again donning the director’s hat with Delhi based drama Aankhon Dekhi. The quirky film revolves around the character of Raje Bauji (played by Sanjay Mishra) and the day-to-day experiences he shares with his extended family.“I have been writing this script for past eight years. We know many things in life but we tend to believe those which we have either experienced or seen,” he said.
“When I did Phas Gaye Re Obama, I was writing the script of Aankhon Dekhi. I and Sanjay shared screen space together in it. He is such a brilliant and effortless actor and I was really moved to see his performance. I decided that time only that Sanjay is my Bauji in the film,” he added.
