Sanjay Leela Bhansali Reacts To Losing His Temper On Sets
In an interview, the Devdas director said that when he’s on set, he becomes possessed and obsessed, and he loves his work too much. SLB shared that he arrives on the sets an hour or two before the shoot. In these 30 years, he has always been on time on the set. He wants his actors and technicians to bring the same commitment as he does. He doesn’t want people to be on the phone and wants the cast and crew to give him everything and understand the nuances. “And I do long takes, lengthy shots. It’s difficult for them. I’m throwing the challenge at you; I’m throwing the ace at you. You have to throw three aces back at me. And if you don’t, you have to wait in the van for a little while and come back,” Bhansali said.
