New Delhi Aug 3 (IANS) Filmmaker Nitesh Tiwari of "Dangal" fame lets stories take him to the place of shooting but says he mostly likes to shoot at real locations.
His films as a director and writer mostly tell the stories of characters that are close to reality.
Asked about the choice of shooting location Tiwari told IANS: "I don t make a conscious decision that this is where I want to shoot. I like stories to take me (to the location) and I mostly like to shoot in real locations. That s the kind of filmmaker I am."
"So whatever the story demands I try to keep it as real as possible unless there are certain situations that can t be done in real life. As far as possible I would like to shoot in real locations. I wouldn t like to restrict myself to a particular place " added the director of "Bhoothnath Returns".
Filmmaking is clearly his passion. But he has more.
"I love to watch a lot of movies...all kinds of films. I also love to spend time with my family " said Tiwari whose wife Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari is also a director.
He finds a lot of films inspiring. So is he open to adaptations?
"Why not? If there is something really interesting then why not because stories are meant to be told " he shared.
Meanwhile his campaign of "Kaun Banega Crorepati" (KBC) is being lauded for being relevant.
