Jeet, I recall actor Naseeruddin Shah saying similar statements of Director Mrinal Sen after making "Genesis". But Mrinal Sen is a great filmmaker irrespective of Mr Shah's views--and Mr Shah is an intelligent and honorable man. The same goes for appreciating Fellini. You cannot judge a man's capability or creativity by a few meters of celluloid. It only adds to the mosaic of the man's diverse approaches in the process of creating a fine product!
