The lighter the subject, the easier it is. At least, that’s what the Hindi film industry believes, says Farhad Samji. The director says he has felt a lack of respect for his work, purely for the light-hearted space his movies are set in. “There is a lack of respect and value, even if we have delivered Rs 100-crore or Rs 200-crore hits. I have learnt to live with it,” laments Samji, who is now gearing up for the release of Salman Khan’s Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan (KKBKKJ).
