Amitabh Bachchan speaks about Hindi film director Manmohan Desai. He says " Manmohan Desai is special to me and he is special for me because of various reasons. I have special regard for him because he makes things so much easier for me. I don't have to worry about the script, story about what I am doing and how I am supposed to do it, what I have to wear and how he wants me to perform. Its all very meticulously planned months before he actually comes in front of the camera. He has worked on his character, his story and on his script and that makes it so much easier for me as an artist."
