Notorious for keeping a ‘safe’ distance from the media, Abhay Deol states that he has his reasons nontheless. However, he acknowledges the mechanics of journalism and has “learned to keep answers short and concise”. For instance, the only thing he is willing to say about his romance with Preeti Desai is “...so far, so good”. In a tete-a-tete, Abhay gets philosophical about the need of good films, his next and much more.
