Filmmakers should embrace their marginalisation, says Dibakar Banerjee

MUMBAI: Filmmakers shouldn’t worry about getting marginalised in the film industry, says Dibakar Banerjee, who credits the independence that comes from being on the sidelines for helping him come up with diverse movies like “Khosla Ka Ghosla”, “Shanghai” and “Sandeep Aur Pinky Faraar”.

Banerjee, considered one of the most astute and politically-aware filmmakers of Hindi cinema, has often touched upon social and political evils in his cinema.

He may have worked with well-known stars of Bollywood, be it Abhay Deol, Emraan Hashmi or Arjun Kapoor, but the filmmaker said his films have never belonged to mainstream cinema.
