Bhansali recalls that when he was older and went to watch movies, he was fascinated with the projector fascinated and the beam of light falling on the big screen, “I wondered how it happened and told myself that one day, I will tell my story too.

Netflix will showcase the ambitious Heeramandi a subject close to my heart. My friend Moin Baig presented the story to me 14 years ago but I had to wait because it had to be presented on a grand scale.
