Vishal Bhardwaj

He does not shy away from admitting that the desire for success pushed him to become a music composer but after spending almost three decades in the film industry, Vishal Bhardwaj has come to believe that "creative satisfaction" is the driving force for him. The 52-year-old filmmaker says craving for success is in human nature and he is no different but with time, his priorities have changed from money or fame to creating the cinema he believes in. "If one says he is not looking for success, he is lying. If somebody is not bothered about success, they are actually close to nirvana. Success represents greed. If one doesn't want success, they have overpowered their greed. With success comes three things---money, fame and power.
