Vidhu Vinod Chopra apologises for delays in his films

Highlights

  • Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra, who is ready to release his next production Ferrari Ki Sawaari, says their films get delayed because they don't start the project unless they have a good story.
  • "We don't make a film unless we are sure that we have a good story. Ferrari ki Sawaari took 4 years. The idea for the film first came when we were writing 3 Idiots. So we worked almost 4 years on Ferrari, dialogues alone took almost a year," the 55-year-old said here at the launch of a new song of Ferrari ki Sawaari.
  • "When we make a film, we very proudly bring it to you. Be it Ferrari ki Sawaari , Munnabhai or Chitthiyan or any other film. So writing a story consumes a lot of time for which we are extremely sorry but you know that we bring a good film," he added.
  • Directed by Rajesh Mapuskar, Ferrari Ki Sawaari stars Sharman Joshi and Boman Irani and is slated for a June 15 release.
  • Chopra revealed how the great comedian Charlie Chaplin inspired him to zero in on the title.
  • "We were writing the story around three years back, I had gone to America at that time. At Palm Spring I was living in a house where Charlie Chaplin used to live. There was a small stage in his house where he used to perform for his friends. That was a very inspiring house. I called Mapuskar from there and said I think I have the title and we have to thank Charlie Chaplin for it," he said.
