Imtiaz Ali retracts statement about sending back ‘Highway’ crew member for hovering around Alia
Hours after Imtiaz Ali made a bizarre comment about women’s safety in cinema by sharing anecdotes, the filmmaker retracted his foot-in-the-mouth comment.
Actor Chandan Roy Sanyal, who shared screen space with Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan in Imitaz Ali’s Jab Harry Met Sejal, says the filmmaker is the wizard of romantic films.
“Working with Imtiaz Ali and Shah Rukh Khan was a dream come true. It has always been a dream for someone like me, who is an outsider in the industry, to get a chance to work with the best people in the business,” Chandan said in a statement.
“It was a great learning opportunity for me and I am happy to have shared the screen space with Mr. Khan and be directed by the wizard of romantic films — Imtiaz Ali,” he added.
