SHEKAR Kapur, who was appointed as the director of the International Film Festival of India (IFFI), shares that he accepted the position because of his love for films.

In this exclusive conversation, the veteran filmmaker speaks about creative freedom, business side of the film industry, and more
Excerpts:
Today, there is a lot of criticism of vulgar, violent, and abusive content/films. Does this impact creativity and creative freedom? A filmmaker should have a belief system. I don't put anything in the abusive content category. Didn't I make Bandit? We fought censorship.
