In a startling revelation, acclaimed filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali has opened up about his latest project, Heeramandi, a series that took an astonishing 20 years to fruition.
Despite the extended production timeline, the series has not been without its controversies, with fans expressing disappointment over numerous bloopers that have surfaced.
Bhansali, known for his meticulous attention to detail and grandeur in filmmaking, began conceptualizing Heeramandi in 2003.
The project, a passion for the director, faced numerous delays and obstacles over the years. Bhansali almost abandoned the idea several times, only to be drawn back by his vision for the series.
Heeramandi, set in a mythical diamond bazaar, was finally greenlit by Netflix after Bhansali’s successful meeting with the streaming giant’s CEO, Ted Sarandos. The move to a digital platform allowed Bhansali the creative freedom to expand the narrative in scale and scope.
However, despite the high expectations, the release has not been smooth. Fans have pointed out several continuity errors and production bloopers, leading to criticism.
Many are questioning how such oversights could occur in a project that took two decades to develop.
Bhansali, undeterred by the backlash, remains proud of his work. He believes that Heeramandi’s rich storytelling and intricate details will ultimately be appreciated for its artistic value.
The director hopes viewers will look beyond the flaws and embrace the series for its ambitious narrative and visual splendor.
As Heeramandi continues to spark discussions and debates, one thing is clear: Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s commitment to his craft is unwavering, even if the journey has been fraught with challenges.
