The Golmaal series filmmaker Rohit Shetty says he takes criticism sportingly. The director on taking criticism stated: "I am not thick skinned... I am quite practical in the film business. If I talk from the business point, my film is a product and as a businessman, I know my product will cater to a certain group of customers and not impress the whole world."
"So, it is wise to serve to my potential audience. But that does not mean I would abuse critics and get defensive. I understand their point as well," he added.
When he was asked if criticism hurt him, "It's not about being emotional about it... It is a matter of choice. If I will start making films to impress critics, I might just lose my target audience and that is risky. But yes, I am sure one day I will bridge the gap by making something that will impress both," he said.
