“I am a fan of romantic dramas like Before Sunset, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Blue Valentine. I like the equation and relationship shown in these films,” he said.

“As a director, I like doing challenging films and different genres. I watch cartoons and comedies. They excite me a lot. I like to do fantasy action films like Walt Disney,” He adds.
