"When I am asked how I have maintained this balance, I always say that this proves my versatility as a creative person," Satish Kaushik, who has directed 'Karzzz' starring Himesh Reshmiya and Urmila Martondkar, told PTI here in an interview.
'Karzzz', a remake of Subhash Ghai's 1980s blockbuster by the same name starring Rishi Kapoor would be released on October 17. T-series, producers of the remake purchased the rights of the film from Ghai.
Satish said his next film as an actor is 'Chatursingh 2 star', a comedy film with Sanjay Dutt.
When asked why he was not seen on screen for a long time, Satish said, he was busy directing movies and acting took a backseat.
"But I worked in a British film called 'Brick Lane' last year which got a standing ovation in Toronto film festival last year. I will soon begin work on an American film," he added.
Speaking about 'Karzzz', Satish said he is not afraid of comparisons with the original. "Comparisons are inevitable. It is not for the first time a remake is being made. I have made remakes of many Tamil and Telugu movies, but it is for the first time that I am making a remake of a Hindi film," he said.
