It's a BIG talk!

Do you believe if I say I rejected an offer to become United Nations next secretary general post? You might ask me what's the heck I am saying? Mira stands the same.
I saw Mansoon wedding. It's such a shame to show some scenes which bring bad image to relations. Mira nair seems to have -ve thinking about the society and relations. It is sick to see ugly relationships in films. There are large numbers around the world to fingure print any dark spot in Indian society. Mira is a director of small things in life. Not a techie worth giving a thought directing Harry potter.

Really stupid Harry Potter is a very interesting book especially the fifth book I don't think she read the book at allthen she might know about how creative the book is

I thought David Yates has already been selected long time ago to direct the this movie.

How come Mira Nair is suddenly in lime-light claiming that she was offered/ rejected to direct this movie? Publicity hoax!!!

Nair's Vanity Fair received mixed reviews in the US, but the director still hopes to get an Oscar nod.
With mixed reviews why should Nair expect an Oscar Nod ?
As for rejecting Harry Potter that was the most stupid decision. More audiences worldwide would watch Harry Potter than Vanity Fair. It is a copout on her part perhaps for fear of failure on such a big project. She should reconsider.

Mira nair is really foolish to reject such a great offer.I believe she has refused to do it only because she is afraid that she cant match up the standards expected.

Ms. Nair's New Movie, Vanity Fair
by Howard F. Fries, P.Eng. on Dec 03, 2004 11:10 PM

In your story about Mira Nair rejected the 5th Harry Potter movie, you indicated her new movie was Vanity Fair with Reece Witherspoon. You mention the author William Thackery but, sadly as an Indian article, you failed to mention that William Makepeace Thackery was born in Calcutta - oops, Kolkata. Too bad.

Good. I dont think she has the creative edge which other hollywood directors have.
