Dibakar Banerjee’s Lucky Oye! may not have done well at the box office, probably because the film came out the week of the Mumbai attacks.It was critically acclaimed, however. Says Dibakar, “That was the time when we all stood united against terror, so I don’t care about whether my film worked or not. But I felt bad for the producer’s losses. I always make small-budget films and my producers don’t normally lose money. If they make a profit, then good for us.” Dibakar is now onto his next movie, Love,Sex Aur Dhoka. So, how did the director think up such a bold title? “When you make a film like this, you better have an attitude of Jo hoga, dekha jayega. If you dared to make this film, you should face the upcoming obstacles too,” feels Dibakar.He said his film was the sort where “you get to see some sex, some violence, but along with that, you also get entertained with comedy that will make you fall from your chair.” Asked if he thought the Censor would have a problem with that, he said: “ I am sure you must be knowing many people who attempt sex... everyone does it, yaar, it’s a part of life, so why should the Censor have a problem? I don’t understand.” Dibakar’s Khosla Ka Ghosla had just one gaali, over which the censor put a bleep. “They didn’t cut it because it’s a common word in North India. So, the Censor Board has been quite intelligent in that respect,” says Dibakar.Asked about the plot of his film, he said, “The film is about how people misuse sex to earn money. The inspiration to make LSD came from the growing MMS scandals in India. Also, if you remember, a few politicians have been caught with their pants down. Such issues inspired me to make the film. When I told the story to Ekta Kapoor, she just wanted to make the film at any cost.” He adds, “I think such scandals are being read just as a headline today, something we forget in a week`s time. Have we ever wondered that there could actually be stories behind each of the headlines? This is what I am trying to convey through Love Sex Aur Dhokha where a hidden camera plays a character by itself.” Meanwhile the title track of the movie has been creating waves all around. The video which is eccentrically choreographed is grabbing eye balls for its unconventional tune and ‘shocking’ lyrics.Well, it sure seems like we are in for something we have not experienced before.The film releases on March 12.
