NEW DELHI: (Apr 4) He was only seven when he visited a film set, saw his father direct and fell in love with the movies. Seventy-two years later and Ramesh Sippy is ready to weave more magic with another “Buniyaad”, taking forward the epic Partition story that aired on Doordarshan in 1986 and still tugs at the heartstrings.

The son of producer-director G P Sippy and the blockbuster director of “Sholay”, “Seeta Aur Geeta” and “Shaan” said the bug bit early. He knew right then that he didn’t want to do anything else.

“Since the age of seven, when I first went on the sets of a film called ‘Saza’, (which was) my father’s first film, I was lost in that world… It wasn’t like a fever at that time but it built up over the years,” Sippy told PTI in an interview.
