Successful directors are not looking for me: Vidhu Vinod Chopra

By Hindustan Times

Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra says he likes collaborating with upcoming directors as working with new talent is way more gratifying than creating a film with established names. "The successful directors are already successful, they do not need me. But somewhere after I Iook back at my life,
and I see the type of individuals who have come into my life, who I'VE helped, who I'VE become friends with, I BELIEVE fulfilled," Chopra told IANS here on the promotional event of Ferrari Ki Sawaari, that's also helmed by first time director Rajesh Mapuskar.

The filmmaker was here with the film's lead actors - Boman Irani and Sharman Joshi and Mapuskar. Ferrari Ki Sawaari releases June 15.

"What makes me extremely happy is that after I see the young talent... I DO NOT need to make big successful films with big directors. For me, making films with young directors is much more gratifying than creating a film with big directors and stars. It's my personal choice," added Chopra, who has worked with new directors like Pradeep Sarkar and Rajkumar Hirani in Parineeta, Munnabhai MBBS respectively.

As part of promotional drive the team of Ferrari Ki Sawaari also drove a Ferrari car at the F1 track of Singapore.
