In a flashback podcast with Lehren, veteran director Prakash Mehra shares his disagreements on Amitabh Bachchan being tagged as an angry young man by a certain sect of people after the success of Zanjeer. The filmmaker opens up about his strong belief in hard work & destiny which in turn made it possible for him to create mega-hit films like Hera Pheri, Hasina Maan Jayegi, Khoon Pasina, Haath Ki Safai, Laawaris, Sharaabi and others. Mehra also highlights the change of trends in relation to a film's success at the silver screens, from being celebrated in theatres for a huge period of 50 weeks to a diminished timeline of 50 days. He also raises his concerns regarding the parameters used by the censor board for evaluating a given featured film.
