India, May 9 -- Riteish Deshmukh is a relieved man, physically, mentally and emotionally. His latest labour of love, Raja Shivaji, has worked at the box office, especially in Maharashtra. His craft as a director, apart from acting, too has found praise. Speaking on The Right Angle show, he spills the beans on everything, from the obsession with numbers to politics and the paparazzi: About the figures floating around regarding Raja Shivaji's budget, only the producers know the real budget. The last thing we need to do as filmmakers is discuss a film's budget because it doesn't affect anything. Budget se kya lena dena hai? If someone asks me the budget, I ask them, 'How much are you paying for a ticket to watch it?' They say 'Rs.100' or 'Rs.250-300', and I reply that's the budget, it should just be worth your time. One should stop talking about it. Let it be magical, you just go and experience the film. When I would go to watch Amitabh Bachchan ji's films like Sholay in my childhood, I would never think, 'Iska budget kya hai?' I just wanted the big-screen entertainment. We would never know how much it collected. Unfortunately, that's the game today. People wonder how much actors charge for films. it's our mistake, we feed these numbers. Those who feel this is right, it's okay. We have made seven Marathi films under our production house, and we have never revealed our films' budgets. It isn't anyone's business. You have so much work at hand that you don't really get the time to be nervous. I can be nervous about a film where someone else is doing all this work. But when you are the one making it and ensuring that the film reaches people on time, so much time goes into it. you can't even think about what people will say about it....
