As he brings another timeless romance, Laila Majnu, to theatres, Imtiaz Ali on how he'd rather create a legacy with his work than be part of the rat race

Imtiaz Ali
When you've said almost everything about love in your last eight films, is it difficult to find uniqueness in a concept?
I don't approach a story based on the concept of love. I love the idea of telling stories about men, women and their relationships. People are unique and that makes it interesting for me.
I don't start thinking that I am making a 'love story'. I have a lifelong interaction with my movies and choose to showcase the experiences well that keep the audience entertained for three hours. I am a greedy filmmaker, hunting for stories to satiate my greed. I don't uphold the genres I am said to be known for.
