The first time I’ve seen a mainstream Indian director speak only about the art and creativity of his filmmaking. For some reason everyone else talks about the business or society. So refreshing!
I can’t think of a better person to interview SLB than Baradwaj Rangan, who is such an astute observer and admirer of his movies. I remember looking forward to BR’s reviews of SLB movies on his blog back in the day. Would love to see BR do an interview with him for every movie of his and dissect them one by one.
what a brilliant interview. Sanjay sir proves it that filmmaking is a lifelong process. A journey that starts young. his observation, his understanding about stories, storytelling, story creating is just amazing. His love for cinema is seen in every word he says.
When this man speaks, its all passion. Its just mesmerizing to hear the creative process and depth in his thought. In Quantum mechanics there is idea, once you have try to observed a superposed state while performing experiment, you have destroyed its whole identity. As he says once you try to dissect an art form, its gone! looses it purity. Also something when emerged from within the system it is far enriched. In Physics funny thing is you can't put such emerge state (for instance Phonon) under microscope and pin point, say look here is the emerged state. Rather It emerges from cumulative, collective vibration of all atoms. Multiple time in Bhansali's answer echos such idea. And many more.....I could hear this man day long.
It is very rare to have such people rooted so deeply in their art . Look at the face of this man when he speaks about his work , his creations. He is giving and yet not giving - A TRUE ARTIST . He is leaving room for art lovers to interpret his art form. You are the finest and after this I must say that you are the deepest within as well. Now I know where you create your films from , the place doesn’t exist physically. What an artist 👏🏻 Big thumbs up for the sensible Interviewer with intelligent questions and most importantly True questions. There wasn’t even one second of flash moment in this video. It was said from Heart and it did reach heart. Thank you for bringing it up ok social media which is otherwise filled with deafening noise. Your video is like a meditation. 🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
His ideas of costume, Hindustani classical music including thumri, dances, postures, beauty is phenomenon. Being a trained dancer and a vocalist, I gage a lot of relatability. And when someone makes these stories immortal and potrays these stories with immense power and dignifies every culture the films represents are absolutely detailed and intriquing.
What a delight to hear a master of his craft simplifying his craftsmanship in his own words. I can listen uninterrupted to the magical world of ‘experience’ he continues to create.
What an absolute treat and joy to have seen this interview. Thank you so much. Huge admirer of SLB’s cinema. The questions you asked and then allowed SLB to just flow was in itself a masterclass of two veterans.❤️
Thus guy is part of art. He is deep full of appreciation in what he believe and does. Another think like about him he give respect to senior artist be it actors actresses directors singers producers
I had seen Khamoshi in the theatre. The songs were what stood out and how for the first time a disability was not morose but just an incidental part of the story.
Alamzeb cannot act to save her life. Sad to see her getting cast in such a profound role, as she is not yet ready to shoulder that kind of meaty part. SLB is best ! Bharadwaj is one of the best interviewers I hv seen, as he actually discovers various hidden gems in the movie which sometimes the director himself may be unaware. Awesome interview , enjoyed as much as Herramandi 🎉
UM I WAS NOT READY FOR THIS! let me get my popcorn. Edit: the last part is a great follow up from the Fahad Faasil interview - I guess he is one of the rare actors who did give literally everyone else but himself credit for his amazing performances.
How I would like to see at least a brief retelling of this interview in text in English. It's difficult for me to perceive by ear. Heeramandi is my MOST favorite series! A series of all time! Even the famous “Game of Thrones!” I don’t love as much as I love Heeramandi. S. L. Bhansali is a great director, maybe the greatest living now.
I am sure Vidhu Vinod Chopra must have raved about BR in his circles 😁 otherwise no way that Bhansali comes out and breaks down his thoughts in public.
There's certain level of madness that i see in SLB, the madness to capture every aspect of anything and everything. Nobody can be a perfectionist, but i see that he doesn't want even a little essense of creativity to escape. His interview reminded me of Van gogh. Art is madness amplified. A creative and artistic mind needs to get all that thought process out on a canvas to stay sane. The mediums ofcourse can be different and his medium is films ❤ .
Baradwajji asked questions with genuine sincerity and they resonated with SLB .This is an organic interview in which SLB shares his connection with the minds of the artists in the past who have departed .SLB also describes what love means to him and how he portrays it symblically through his characters. It almost feels like a catharasis with SLB opening up to diverse questions.SLB's mind is an amalgamation of art,architecture ,music, he isa creative genious of the past.Great host,beautiful interview, thanks to Baradwajji.
✨SLB ✨ is the greatest filmmaker in the world. The directors he gets inspiration from, I believe he is way bigger & better than all of them. This is the only genius India has now. This man should be protected at any cost and must be celebrated to the heights possible. What a mind. Salute 🫡 Btw amazing interview BR as always.
SLB....A true Cinema Man with 200 percent commitment to the craft and to the hell passionate about creating celluloid experience like never seen before in Indian screens. A big bow to BR for getting him to speak and it speaks about great credibility ..
Master class with a Master film maker and NOT to forget Master Music composer. Rangan does justice to his craft by asking the right questions, gentle probing and listening well. Wonderful that Rangan spent time on his musical side. It came as a surprise that Sanjay has NOT learnt formal music! Hey Rangan, you need to devote one interview ONLY on his music and go even deeper. Wonder if there are any videos where he is conducting his music sessions. Aaj Abaadat, Laal Ishq, Aayat .... absolute ever green masterpieces which will be eternal.
Bhansali should understand that even simplicity,calmness and devotion has beauty of higher form than just sets and ornaments.I think there can be a great film made on Meerabai or Radha...
He understand that's why he made Khamoshi. Present form is his unique imagination. You also should understand maximalism is also a art form. There is no harm in creating it.
Excellent interview! We get a glimpse of the creative, keen observant mind of the film maker at work- creating larger than life frames with minutest details and the masterpieces leaving us the audience in awe. Wishing Sanjay jee many more🎥🙏
Really great to see the interview of SLB saying how he made the movies and deep rooted reasons for that .he is cristal clear about his ideads and how they comes from and Canvas in making is wonderful...❤❤❤
While I loved the interview and hearing about Sanjay’s intuitiveness was fascinating but I thought he was a little rude to BR in the interview - You can tell BR was just trying to draw out Sanjay’s filmmaking method but it felt like Sanjay kept taking everything the wrong way.. Well done to BR for his immense patience and attention to detail
Sanjay sir name of perfect creation thinking singing how he brought the idea completely perfect I feel Sanjay sir sleep and while he wakeup in dreem he watch you need to create this shot like this the idea wonderful he chose color dress set designed everything amazing I request to Sanjay sir from where you get the move every second idea.....
he is the maker who focuses on his work and make masterpieces in form of movie and series he never wear designers clothes on live in expensive homes thats why his work is remembareable
Why does Sanjay not mention Aishwariya anymore.. whenever he is talking about Devdas or HDDCS or any actors he has worked with.. He does not talk about Aish.. Bhansali Productions never mentioned Aishwariya when they released the 30 Years of SLB reel..
The first time I’ve seen a mainstream Indian director speak only about the art and creativity of his filmmaking. For some reason everyone else talks about the business or society. So refreshing!
Creativity
Just look at Bhansali's eyes when he is talking about movies!!! My god!!! The passion is so intense

Internet wasnt prepared for it. Barry is the one to interview him both are known for appreciation for details
you can see that the way that SLB speaks is so poetic. no wonder why his work is also very poetic.
One Of The Only Auteur's Left in Bollywood 💎🐐
Also Mr. Rangan Need A Part 2 What A Conversation.
i learnt a new word today because of you.
What a delight to hear a master of his craft simplifying his craftsmanship in his own words. I can listen uninterrupted to the magical world of ‘experience’ he continues to create.
What an absolute treat and joy to have seen this interview. Thank you so much. Huge admirer of SLB’s cinema. The questions you asked and then allowed SLB to just flow was in itself a masterclass of two veterans.❤️
You can feel the passion he has for cinema in this interview. Absolutely love Sanjay Leela Bhansali❤
Thus guy is part of art. He is deep full of appreciation in what he believe and does. Another think like about him he give respect to senior artist be it actors actresses directors singers producers
I wasnt prepared ready for this!
Such an old soul. That's why I love his cinema that resonates with my idea of cinema, Indianness and worldview
I had seen Khamoshi in the theatre. The songs were what stood out and how for the first time a disability was not morose but just an incidental part of the story.
I am saying this on behalf of everyone here - Thank you for this interview!✨
Alamzeb cannot act to save her life.

SLB is best !
Bharadwaj is one of the best interviewers I hv seen, as he actually discovers various hidden gems in the movie which sometimes the director himself may be unaware.
Awesome interview , enjoyed as much as Herramandi 🎉
I didn’t look away off the screen even for a minute! SLB is mesmerising ✨

You are a fabulous craftsmen Bhansali sir. Keep going
Most Awaited Interview..two genius cinema lovers
Manisa koirala performance wow just wow
Thank you Sanjay ji for making us a part of your artwork😊
This man resonates the aura of his movies! Great interview 🔥

SLB is all about movies and business, he has given longer interviews to Anupama Chopra
I thought so .. and I know how exciting vvc was when talking to BR
He’s the last of the custodian of Hindi cinema
The master Sanjay Leela Bhansali ❤
What a genius of a filmmaker he is man
Wowwwwwwwwwww💗💗💗💗 I love Sanjay Leela Bhansali movies and huge respect for his thoughts of women!!!!!!
Wow!! SLB throwing light on his chaotic but passionate process that leads to such beauty and precision in each & every frame of his work of ART! ❤
Wow! BR OBSESSED with Saawariya and fanboying hard and Sanjay being wary and nonplussed 😂😂
There's certain level of madness that i see in SLB, the madness to capture every aspect of anything and everything. Nobody can be a perfectionist, but i see that he doesn't want even a little essense of creativity to escape. His interview reminded me of Van gogh. Art is madness amplified.

"A Sanjay Leela Bhansali Film" is a cinematic emotion.
An interview actually filled with filmy talks and unlike the uncomfortable gossiping.... Wow... There is so much passion in this interview!
Omg he actually gave an interview
I feel like i read a deep analytical text book and am preparing for some exam .haha
Slb sir we admire you profusely! Love from Sri Lanka ❤️🇱🇰
Thanks baddy for this rarest or rare interviews with the legend called slb whom we all love and treasure. Cant wait for love and war

The interview everyone was waiting for
SLB masterclass ,very nice interview thank you BR🙏
I am surprised "Umrao jaan" didn't come up. It was beautifully done, songs were just fav and Rekha maam did brilliant job.
Thanks for this meditation
Even Bharadwaj Rangan is struggling to ask questions to SLB. But only he could have made SLB speaks like this.
We are fortunate that at least someone is carrying the legacy of mehboob sahb...k asif and even naushad sahb work...kudos to SLB...
✨SLB ✨ is the greatest filmmaker in the world. The directors he gets inspiration from, I believe he is way bigger & better than all of them. This is the only genius India has now. This man should be protected at any cost and must be celebrated to the heights possible. What a mind. Salute 🫡

What a great prospective, everything based on reality.
