Oscar nominated Iranian director Majid Majidi is all set to start filming his next project in India. He is a recipient of 32 international awards and an Oscar nomination for his film Children of Heaven. He was in the capital on Friday to talk about his tie up with UTV's Spot Boy Motion Pictures which will result in a film by Majidi, extensively shot in India with an Indian cast. Majidi is known for making films which focus on human emotions and dilemmas like Color of Paradise, Baran and the Oscar nominated, Children of Heaven. When it comes to Indian cinema, Majidi compliments Satyajit Ray, Shyam Benegal and Mira Nair, but feels otherwise about commercial Indian films.
