Director Sanjay Leela Bhansali talked about his much-discussed temper and stated that he doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with becoming upset. The director recounted stories of his outbursts with the actors and crew on site, claiming that he gets ‘possessed and obsessed’ every time he enters Mumbai’s Film City and he expects the same behavior from his collaborators.
During a conversation with India Today, he said, “I love my work too much” and that he operates from another dimension. Sanjay recently made his debut on OTT with the Netflix series ‘Constitution: The Diamond Bazaar’.
He shared, “I am there one hour, two hours before shoot every day. Even today, after 30 years, I will never be late on set. The commitment that I bring, an actor has to be on the same page, my technicians have to be on the same page. I’m giving everything, so you can’t be on the phone. You have to give me everything. You have to 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 revealed that neither the movie nor the cast are ever bigger than the work. He shared, “If I’m not getting what I want, even if I lose my temper, what is wrong in it? If you’re not getting a shot, and if someone is spoiling it, what will you do? People have made stories that I’m angry, that I’m badly behaved…” Actors and technicians feel they don’t receive the same ‘love’ on other sets, therefore the director allegedly pampers them and frequently returns to work with them and vice versa.
Sanjay further added, “What we go through on the set is not important. What we create on set for the world is important. When I shouted at somebody or got angry with somebody or laughed and joked with somebody, it’s never going to be remembered. What car I came in, what palatial house I live in, nobody is interested. I want to know what Raj Kapoor left behind, not the bungalow that he lived in, not the turmoil on his set or what his actors went through.”
Bhansali acknowledged once again that he gets angry ‘sometimes’, but only because he’s like a child who acts out when he doesn’t get his way. Additionally, he stated that he always apologizes first when he crosses the line.
Stars like Ranbir Kapoor, Deepika Padukone, and Ranveer Singh have all mentioned in the past that they had experienced difficulties with the director. In an interview with Neha Dhupia, Ranbir said that he was “tortured” while shooting. “He (Bhansali) was a hard task-master and I was kneeling down on set, he was beating me…after a point it got so heavy and I felt so tortured that I had to quit the film at a point…I think it was like 10 or 11 months into my job and I am like ‘ listen I can’t do this, its getting to me’ I think I am too sensitive and emotional and he got to know me so well and he kind of kept poking into that… he got too much, went crazy as far as I was concerned,” he said.
