Won't fall prey to my past mistakes: Anubhav Sinha on his new phase

Anubhav Sinha's says in his current phase, dubbed as a "2.0", he aims to amplify his new voice without falling into the trap of past mistakes.

Before turning to political and socially relevant films, the filmmaker was known for helming romantic dramas like "Tum Bin" franchise and big action spectacles, "Ra.One", "Dus" and "Cash".

With critically-acclaimed films "Mulk", "Article 15" and now "Thappad", Sinha says developing a film has become easy for him today, "but it's a trap."
"I have made my mistakes and learnt from those. I'm not falling prey to it again. I should have a script everybody is wanting to be a part of, which is exciting. Not the fact that it's easier for me to call up Ayushmann, Vicky Kaushal or Rajkummar Rao to do a film."
"I was always fearless. I'm more assured after 'Mulk'. I am doing so many things, so I haven't had the time to reflect. I think this phase is a combination of things."
"So while I was making those films, I was getting inspired by 'Aligarh', 'Haasil', 'Black Friday', 'Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi.' I also started reading again, when the story of 'Mulk' happened to me."
"I remember Kashyap watching it pretty late and talking to me about it for hours. Then I got a message from Sooraj Barjatya. And I went 'wow, from Anurag Kashyap to Sooraj Barjatya, this is a nice spectrum.'
"After 'Mulk' I figured it's your voice that people are connecting with. So then my voice became of prime importance to me for my films."
