I am critical of my own work: Reema Kagti

Reema Kagti, fresh from the success of her latest "Gold", says both good reviews and commercial success matter to her.

"Logic dictates that a commercial success is better for the director than a flop. Whether it is an actor, a director or a technician, appreciation for your work makes you feel good.

"The balance has to be right... You do not want the other thing happening, where your film has earned lot of money but got zero appreciation," Reema told PTI.

Reema made her directorial debut with romcom "Honeymoon Travels Pvt Ltd" in 2007 to psychological horror "Talaash" (2012).

Sports drama "Gold" is the director's latest offering, which has earned decent reviews and money at the ticket window.

She says she is her own critic, which she believes is an advantage.

"I am critical of my own work, when I see my films, you only see mistakes, you don't see what is good. It is good and it keeps you on your toes."
