Acclaimed filmmaker Ashutosh Gowariker is not perturbed over flak from audience on trailer of his upcoming film ‘Mohenjo Daro’ and says one needs to be open to criticism. The 52-year-old ‘Lagaan’ director counselled movie-goers to be patient and form opinion after seeing the film.

Asked how he dealt with criticism over the trailer, he said, “We are open to that. When Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan) was in good career phase a film named ‘Alaap’ came and the poster had Amitji’s face that seemed poetic. I did not go for it as I was enjoying watching him in ‘Don’, ‘Trishul’.

“We have our own image or response to a trailer. In a trailer you try to depict a story. There are certain elements that shock you but you have to be patient and form your opinion after seeing the film. I think ‘Alaap’ was a superb film and Amitji was great,” he added.

The epic adventure-romance film, written and directed by Ashutosh, features Hrithik and Pooja Hegde in the lead roles. The film, produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur and Sunita Gowariker, releases on August 12.
