Q. In 2009, you met Anoushka at a dinner in Delhi, while researching for a film that looked at the last days of the British Raj. Are you still keen to make it?
A. I’m hoping to develop a project that is centered around India. But I don’t want to do a white man’s story, or a European’s story of India. I want to tell a story from the Indian perspective.
