The name of Benegal, who directed films like 'Manthan', 'Nishant', 'Junoon', will always be immortal in the world of cinema because of his excellent work.

Shyam Benegal always focused on parallel cinema instead of making commercial films in his career. There is hardly any film of his which is not liked by cinema lovers. But Shyam Benegal himself once talked about which of his films he does not like.

Which of his films does Shyam Benegal not like?

In an interview given to Unfiltered with Samdish, when he was asked whether there is any film of his which he does not like. So he replied, all the films. When he was asked about the reason behind this, he gave a very simple answer.

Shyam Benegal's heart winning answer

Shyam Benegal had said, “How can you be satisfied with the work you have done. It's not that I'm sad. You are a little more critical than most people, because you know the flaws in the work you have done. You know what you have done. And you also know where you have faltered. “Where you didn’t succeed in doing what you wanted to do, and then you hid it.”

This answer of Shyam Benegal is heart-winning in itself. This is because the person who is called the Messiah of Parallel Cinema, when the government gets the idea of ​​showing the history of India on TV, the name of the person is selected and that person produces a historical series like 'Bharat Ek Khoj'. Yes, he talks about the flaws in his work in a simple tone.

The special thing is that just 2 years after the release of this film, in the year 1976, he was honored with Padma Shri by the Government of India. He also received Padma Vibhushan in 1991.
