Even
with
one
blockbuster
Welcome
one
super
hit
No
Entry
and
two
hits
Deewangee,
Pyaar
To
Hona
Hi
Tha
under
his
belt,
director
Anees
Bazmee
continues
to
be
as
modest
as
he
has
always
been.
Busy
filming
for
Singh
Is
Kinng,
the
man
who
has
been
scriptwriting
for
more
than
two
decades,
sounds
calm
and
composed
in
spite
of
the
fact
that
his
Welcome
has
turned
out
to
be
huge
global
success.
"We
never
went
overboard
before
the
release
of
Welcome,
we
didn't
shout
from
the
rooftops
when
it
witnessed
one
of
the
best
openings
ever
in
the
history
of
Bollywood
and
we
haven't
given
a
sound
byte
a
day
even
after
the
film
was
declared
a
blockbuster
within
a
fortnight.
Yes,
what
makes
me
immensely
happy
is
that
the
audience
has
loved
the
film
and
taken
the
film
along
for
five
weeks
now.
The
moolah
certainly
counts,
but
the
appreciation
coming
along
has
been
a
great
reward
that
I
would
always
cherish",
says
a
relaxed
Bazmee.
With
two
back-to-back
huge
successes,
including
No
Entry
and
Welcome,
he
must
be
quite
confident
about
Singh
Is
Kinng,
isn't
it?
So
what's
the
India
box
office
target
that
he
has
in
mind
for
the
film?
Is
it
Rs
100
crore
considering
the
fact
that
Welcome
has
raced
past
Rs
70
crore
just
from
India
and
is
still
counting?
Laughs
Anees
Bazmee,
"If
only
these
things
would
have
been
so
simple
and
we
had
a
magic
calculator
to
get
the
figures
flowing
then
life
would
have
been
so
simple,
isn't
it?
No
one
can
predict
the
fate
of
Singh
Is
Kinng,
not
even
me.
Also,
at
least
I
have
never
made
a
film
keeping
the
ultimate
'munafa'
(profit)
in
mind.
Movie
making
is
a
passion
for
me
and
when
I
make
a
film,
I
do
so
keeping
in
mind
that
there
are
enough
ingredients
to
keep
the
audience
entertained
and
they
go
home
with
a
feeling
of
contentment."
He
concludes
by
saying,
"Maine
hamesha
yahi
maana
hai
ki
apna
kaam
imaandaari
se
karna
chahiye,
baaki
uske
baad
upar
waala
aur
audience
hain
(I
have
always
believed
that
one
has
to
work
with
utmost
honesty
and
rest
should
be
left
to
God
and
the
audience)!
You
have
to
be
true
to
your
passion."
