He is probably the most overrated director around currently. His films stopped making sense ages ago and are pathetically wannabe. SNT was his best. JWM was very good. The rest aren't even worth talking about...I haven't seen Highway and I can't even be bothered to. Ahista Ahista which he wrote was decent too but the rest are atrocious films. I have no idea why Ranbir is obsessed with him. 

Anika, I agree tamasha would be less appreciated movie of his. He seems heartbroken and depressed, but still I hope it won't affect the movie.

I think marriage is one of the sweetest thing, two people coming together and staying together for rest of their life. It takes two people to make marriage work. You have to give up a lot for what you want for tomorrow rather than today.

Marriage is not for everyone lol, it's an individual choice and that's fine. However I don't think it's respectful of him to talk about how he basically felt suffocated while being married to his then wife. Some things are not meant to be shared Imtiaz. This is one of them.

Marriage makes you mediocre..that makes no sense too.

This was supposed to be made before Rockstar. He approached Ranbir to do this film first in 2010. So don't think divorce would have any affect on the script at least.  Edited by scorpio_bins - 9 years ago

Why can't he share what he felt? I an glad to see someone tell it like it is. I am kind of sick of these dignified mutually agreeable fake divorce statements people give! Give me a reason! If we never learn about the true cause of divorce, how will we understand why marriages fail?

I don't find his ex wife to be bad because she suffocated him! She just wasn't right for this guy! She had different expectations...there must be someone else who will meet hers or she may have to loosen up in her next relationship! Big deal! But at least we know why! And I honestly hate when every reason for divorce is attributed to cheating! It's never just so simple!

And his statement about all married men was light hearted joke!Edited by LifeOLicious - 9 years ago
