Even though Nishabhd has stirred up a lot of conterversies and discontent, Big B thinks its all worth it!
Nishabd has triggered a lot of debate.
I did Nishabd because it was challenging, so I?m happy that I?ve been appreciated and that the audience has understood what the film is really about.
Ram Gopal Varma feels the projection of the film?s publicity was wrong, but not a single person has disliked it.
The point of the film is, what does a man in that situation (falling for a much younger girl) do? I think the ethical speculation is a hypocritical excuse for puerile thoughts.
Some people challenged the wisdom of the character, as though wisdom and age are linked together. Wisdom doesn?t automatically come with age.
You?ve stunned audiences in Nishabd.
One reason for that is because we went to a remote place to shoot at a stretch. There were no crowds, no phones, and no connection with the rest of the world.
It was the silence that stimulated creativity. The moment the camera goes on, the actor craves solitude.
Most of the time, we?re so crowded we don?t do our best work. Everything came together in Nishabd.
I just love the time Ramu gave to my close-up after my character asks the girl to leave. Ramu just lets the moments linger.
Is Nishabd your finest film in recent times?
I?m fortunate. Black and Nishabd are two films that gave me the opportunity to delve into the darker areas of my personality.
