The way Ramesh Sippy and BR Chopra used to work, we don’t have that. However, nowadays we are just busy competing and we don’t celebrate each other. The first thing we need to do is come together and say that ‘we are one’. Unfortunately, we don’t agree on anything, be it release windows or distribution module. Each for his own. Vinod Chopra will try to be some kind of rebel, others will call him crazy.
