This feature is coming out of Mirror . First Abhay Deol complained about not getting a fair deal in the movie, now it is the director Rajshree Ojha saying the films wasn't hers. Excerpts from her interview added. Read on. Rajshree Ojha, who directed Anil and Sonam Kapoor's vanity project Aisha, is now saying the film that hit the theatres wasn't hers.
Exactly what does she mean? Half afraid to talk, Rajshree, who is ready with her new film Chaurahen, remarks, "Should I be politically correct and say since my name was on the credits of Aisha, it was my film? Or should I tell you that the film that I had conceptualised was not the one the audience saw." Taking a deep breath, she continues, "I had no control over the final cut." Does that mean producer Anil Kapoor gave final shape to the film?
All said, Rajshree seems to have learnt her lesson. "When we decided to do an adaptation of Jane Austen's Emma, there were many layers to the character. However, I don't know where those layers vanished. Apparently Kiera wants to see Rajshree's adaptation of Emma. However Rajshree is in no mood to oblige... "Forget Kiera, even Jane Austenwouldn't recognise my Aisha to be her Emma," she quips.
