Mahesh Bhatt sahib to me stands out among the current generation of film directors in India in terms of talent and vibrancy of his conception of thoughts but rarely he’s been able to incorporate his immense talents into his film projects. Arth and Zakhm moved me pretty much and made me realize the enormity of talent of Bhatt sahib there’s no doubt about that.

Mahesh sahab I think slightly forgot to mention about his last movie in terms of his directorial work which was Kartoos released in 1999. And one thing more Bhatt sahab neither your elder daughter nor the youngest one is talented enough in the medium of acting I beg to differ from this assertion of your despite of your God gifted talents.

Mahesh sahab always looked to me a sort of artist whose more interested to probe the dark nature of human psyche along with its interactive modalities towards its environment and different other individuals. Hence we can see the dominant themes of extra-marital relationships, betrayal, violence and raunchy state of mind of his actresses in the movies which he directed and produced till this day.

Bhatt sahab has yet to move away from this fixated frame of mind after his painful past and need to explore more themes for his upcoming projects in order to make his projects less predictable.
