Where does creative inspiration come from? At TEDIndia, Hollywood and Bollywood director Shekhar Kapur (“Elizabeth,” “Mr. India”) points to his source of creativity: total and utter panic. He shares a powerful way to unleash our inner storyteller.
Some of the published comments:
If we could all become better story tellers, it would be easier to both know ourselves and also share our ideas. The technology exists today for everyone to easily put together their own 5 to 15-minute TED story and post it; it is upto us to add the content.
With your guidance and outline of focusing on the levels of plot, psychology, politics and mythology, I am determined to start ‘filiming’ stories of my own.
Why not create a story for every business trip, idea or experience that we want to share with our colleagues, family and/or global friends? Something we could all benefit from I am sure.

His creativity lies in his ability to imagine the scenes rather a gain out of experience. HIS early film in HINDI ‘mausam’ was a super hit and his directorial skills came to light and it was a huge success in terms of commerce as well as creativity i e his direction. The surprising aspect was he had had no behind the camera experience in taking the shots but he did on his own imagination. That Hindi movie was a remake of the great English fiction ‘
His Hindi remake was far better than that English version.
