Imtiaz Ali: The films that I make are the diaries of my travel

Shooting amazing destinations in films and cinematic works of Rockstar director Imtiaz Ali is the masterwork. He considers them his "travel diaries". Imtiaz told to tabloid, "It is just the movies that I make... The films that I make are the diaries of my travel... Because for me, moviemaking is sort of linked with my personal travel. "When I watch a movie for which I've shot in Portugal, it will reflect what I feel about Portugal," added the filmmaker.
 
The director shot his films in destinations in north India and Europe, to which he said, "show that the work I have done in different countries, has encouraged Indian tourism there and that's a good feeling for me".
 
"Having gone to these places and having worked there with different kinds of people, and working in different cultures was very rewarding... and this award is now time for me to reflect upon the various places I've been to, and all that I have learnt there," Imtiaz added.
 
The Jab We Met director was asked, Is it easier to shoot in foreign destinations than in India? He answered, "I feel there is no place called abroad, and there is no one place called India either. Every place will have its own difficulties... It's not always difficult to shoot in India, and it has not been easy either always to shoot abroad. And vice versa. It's a mix of both types."
 
"For two reasons - one, travelling in itself makes you discover newer things about yourself, and this kind of a self-reminder and awakening is very important for filmmaking. "The other thing is that when you work abroad, it's a very different way of working and you learn different things from them... Things that people don't use in India, and that happens wherever in the world you shoot. "There's a different discipline and different ethics of work. So both ways, travel benefits me as a filmmaker," said the director."
 
Imtiaz on SRK said: "Well, why not? That depends on how good an actor he is and how good a director and team we are to make him look convincing as a tour guide. "This should be answered after you watch the film," he said.
