Shreyas Talpade talks about the N word, the differences between Marathi and Hindi cinema, and on calling the shots from behind the camera.
Shreyas Talpade is among the few actors who have garnered fame on an equal footing in Bollywood and the Marathi film industry. Last seen in the comic caper, Golmaal Again, the actor stepped into the director’s shoes with Poster Boys, a Hindi remake of a Marathi movie by the same name. The newbie director reckons, “I think the biggest kick any filmmaker can get is to direct a film as he is in charge of the entire unit, the entire project. So, he is involved in every aspect of filmmaking. I think it cannot get bigger than this.”
