Blast from the past She always spoke first, thought later …… and regrets it today!
Though MOUSHUMI CHATTERJEE also loves to blame the press for whatever went wrong in her life, in our COURT MARTIAL, she grudgingly concedes that the buck ends (starts?) with her! Yours is the one failure that cannot be blamed on the industry, which has given you the best of breaks. Why do you always chicken out of the race just when the top is within reach? Aren’t you confident enough that the ultimate winner could be you? After all, it is less humiliating to say you never tried than to try and flop! It’s only those who fail who make excuses that they never tried! Since I genuinely have never tried to be No.1, I haven’t bothered to analyse why I didn’t make it. I have never wanted that kind of success. I didn’t want my mind to become corrupt! I didn’t want to get involved in all those calculations and strategies that come with the position. I must please this hero, attend the party, meet that important producer, invite that important director for dinner, etc, etc. I never took my career so seriously. Everything – marriage, baby, success – happened to me very fast, so right
