<p>Bollywood filmmaker Vikramaditya Motwane, on why he will make fringe festival films, but doesn’t want to be identified as a director who does</p>

A still from 2015's Masaan produced by Vikramaditya Motwane's Phantom Films
When Vikramaditya Motwane, a man who got recognised and hailed for the slim-budgeted indie film, Udaan — which went onto pique curiosity at international film fests, and even swept trophies at one of India’s biggest mainstream film awards — says he doesn’t want to be called a “festival film director”, we think that odd. It’s odder still because of the timing. The 38-year-old’s last film as producer was another indie — the 2015 release, Masaan (Crematorium), which received a rare standing ovation at Cannes.
