Known as crusader of political cinema, filmmaker Prakash Jha has introduced political films into the mainstream Bollywood. From Mrityudand to Satyagraha, he has made movies that voice the angst of common people. Being in Paris to attend the film festival Extravagant India, Jha took some time off to speak with Media India Group about his oeuvre, difficulties he faces while producing socio-political movies and increasing visibility of French cinema in India.
