On Thursday evening, R Balki held the attention of cinephiles attending the Mumbai leg of the 6th Jagran Film Festival as he recounted his journey in Bollywood. Besides offering advice to budding filmmakers and sharing warm anecdotes about his career, the 'Shamitabh' director revealed his individual working style to the audience. He mentioned that while writing a script, he chooses not to step out of his house and at times, visits a hill station to keep distractions at bay.
