Director
Vikramaditya
Motwane
is
a
happy,
contented,
and
satisfied
man.
His
maiden
directorial
venture
has
been
critically
acclaimed
and
to
add
more
spark
to
this
happiness,
Amitabh
Bachchan
himself
has
blogged
for
the
film.
Motwane
reminisces
that
there
was
a
time
when
actors
refused
to
walk
down
the
red
carpet
for
Udaan
at
Cannes.
Now
the
movie
has
broken
barriers
and
is
being
praised
everywhere.
Vikramaditya
himself
says
that
the
film
isn"t
about
stars
or
who
is
cast
in
it;
it"s
about
strong
performances.
Vikramaditya
rubbishes
rumors
that
the
movie
was
actually
inspired
from
his
actual
life.
He
says
that
Udaan
was
his
transition
from
a
writer
to
a
director,
and
it
was
perhaps
a
mere
coincidence
that
people
think
it"s
based
on
his
own
life.
The
film
was
written
around
7
years
back,
in
the
year
2003
and
the
debutant
director
had
to
struggle
for
a
couple
of
years
before
he
could
find
a
producer.
However,
he
says
that
this
struggle
sure
was
frustrating
but
it
actually
helped
him
to
gain
a
clearer
perspective
of
the
film
and
he
could
write
with
a
free
mind.
In
a
way,
his
creative
freedom
was
completely
transparent
and
wasn"t
barred
by
anyone.
