All of us have a unique perception of where we see ourselves, from a career standpoint as well as on a personal basis. Do we live for that perfect job, or is it the perfect person? Or is simply everything possible in life? The philosophy each one of us seeks is so different, that the only thing that holds everything together is the constant change built into life itself.
I don't differentiate between what is a personal and professional objective - my aim remains true to heart, and while it might be commonly seen as a professional goal, the satisfaction brought about by achievement fulfills a personal need.
Therapy seems so common in today's world, whether in the form of counseling sessions, talking to friends or playing a sport. The most common form of therapy that we all use, ironically enough, has been greatly underrated - the watching of movies to cleanse your soul.
Ever felt so sad that you just picked up that big bucket of ice cream, got a large box of napkins, and watched "Matru Devo Bavah" till you cried your eyes out? Or fell so in love that you put "Athadu" on and felt that you could wait for Mahesh Babu forever? Or missed college so much, that every scene of "Happy Days" seemed to be speaking your story?
I believe in being therapeutic to the world, and decided to take up film making as a profession. Despite all odds, I think that the type of self realization that can be achieved with an audience which can really see and feel what you wish to express with a film, is unmatched by any other profession. While every person has his unique dreams, mine involve being famous in being the healer, the person whose name every person associates with entertainment, with a sense of achievement and inspiration. Get famous, or die trying. Anything inbetween is a life unlived.
