The correct focus
As a film-maker, he makes it a point to delve into the unobvious and bring forth the unknown. Documentary film-maker Sanjay Maharishi’s love affair with the camera began as a child when his father, veteran theatre personality Mohan Maharishi, gifted him one. It was only a matter of time when his passion for the instrument turned into a profession. “Commercial cinema has never interested me. I’ve worked in Bombay for three years but that’s not what I want to do. It’s a lot of headache and just not for me,” he shares, while in Chandigarh for the screening of his films as a part of the Chandigarh Creative Cinema Circle’s Sunday with Film Maker initiative.
