I have always tried to make profitable films because people's offices shut down if films fail, and I will do everything to avoid that.
Imtiaz AliUsually, you lose interest in a story beyond a certain point. But with Highway, there was something very subtle, yet something very influential. I intended Highway to be the first film that I ever made. Didnt happen.

Imtiaz AliI have never seen a film being as influenced by the incidents during its making as Highway. The adventures of our north Indian road journey has many stories to tell.
