He also took to his blog to further elaborate on the experience and poke fun at himself.
He wrote, “Another chapter endeth .. and they that have worked and lived together for these almost 45 + days , bid farewell in the rejoice of the association .. it’s been a tradition now with this generation to applaud the last day of work .. it never was this before .. but it feels more like a relief from the artist, his tantrums his idiosyncrasies, his temperament his fluctuating moods, pet paroxysms demands and generally unwanted behaviour .. all of which they have found in me , and now rejoice my departure ..
.. thank the Lord they say .. finally this old grumpy, with the flood inspector pyjamas and the telescopic glasses goes .. .. rid eventually of this horror !
He also called Shoojit Sircar a “visionary of cinema.”
He also called Shoojit Sircar a “visionary of cinema” while speaking to IANS, “A sincere thinking Director, taking charge of all the detailing on set, the background movements the camera the passings the actors and their acting by giving acting demos, all a rare quality and a rare maker and visionary of cinema."
"I wonder if we shall work again," he added.
