Raj Nidimoru: When a film becomes a project, it loses its heart

Raj Nidimoru and Krishna DK have made a mark in the industry by bringing in their own sensibilities to their films. Quiz Raj on whether they have had to succumb to the ways of the industry and he shares, “Even though we are filmmakers, we are also an audience. We left everything to come and make films. We often ask ourselves this question, ‘What are we here to make?’ Should we be making the blockbuster films that somebody else is making or do we want to make different films. What we have discovered so far is that we like humour and that creeps into everything that we make. But we have also been associated with something like ‘

Go Goa Gone

’ which is whacky and a film that many people would not want to make. We experiment and that’s what keeps us going. We don’t follow any template set by

Bollywood

but couple of films we made didn’t work and that made us examine what we were doing. When a film becomes a project, it loses its heart. That’s what we have learnt.”
