A couple of days before Crazy was released, we sat together, speaking of film, of craft, of the art that he so deeply believes in. Neither of us knew then what its fate at the box office would be, and we never spoke of failure. But I know this: whether Crazy soared or stumbled, Soham would remain unfazed. That is the man he is. He creates not for applause, not for validation, but because it fulfills him. He is an artist in the truest sense, a man who builds, invests, and dreams for the sake of cinema itself.
