Anuraadha Tewari is the jack of all trades, but she always wanted to master one, which is direction. While she left a mark with movies like 바카라Fashion바카라, 바카라Heroine바카라, and 바카라Jail바카라, things were not going the way she expected them to in her attempts at starting a film of her own.

바카라I am the director who has nearly made three films. The first time I was going to work with Sanjay Dutt, just after 바카라Munna Bhai M.B.B.S.바카라, my producer was the late Nitin Manmohan. But eventually we just had so many creative differences that I just decided that it바카라s better to not make a film and Sanju really respected that. My second film was going to be a period film with Vidya Balan for Atul and Alvira Agnihotri and again, some things didn바카라t work out, mostly budget-wise,바카라 she said.

She further adds, 바카라The third time I was going to make a film was with Sanjay Bhansali Productions. SLB really loved that script of mine. It was totally opposite from the cinema he makes. And unlike his popular avatar, he was encouraging, admiring and very supportive of my vision. This was also made possible because of my friend Sandeep Singh, his then CEO. Unfortunately, things didn바카라t work out then too as Sandeep left the Company and SLB got busy with 바카라Bajirao Mastani바카라.바카라

바카라I did hit a wall during that time. I realised a little late that I was going through clinical depression but once I did, life took a u turn. I sought therapy to heal myself and also started learning Psychotherapy formally.  Eventually started healing people from our Industry as I understood the challenges from within. I still do that as a part time Therapist. That바카라s my Alternate Profession. I am about to set up my website for it called The Urban Oracle. It is something that gave me a deep insight into the Human Mind and helped me upgrade my writing. Today I try to embed mental health messages in every script of mine as part of the story. It바카라s my mission. So yes, here I am at the end of a long journey of healing to write and direct a film someday soon that will not only be the voice of the Urban Indian Woman but also have Healing at its core,바카라 she concludes.
