Judging is tougher than filmmaking: Bhansali

Filmmaker Sanjay Leela Bhansali is all set for his second stint on the small screen as a reality show judge but 'Devdas' director finds it more difficult than directing a movie.

Bhansali will judge the Indian version of the singing reality show 'X Factor' along with playback singers sonu Nigam and Shreya Ghoshal.

"Judging and directing a movie are two different things but I find judging more difficult as cameras follow you round the clock and people see every move you make. But when I direct films, I am behind the camera. So it is easy and comfortable," Bhansali told PTI.

The director also feels that being a judge you have to be on your toes constantly.

"There is the responsibility of someone's life and future on you. A wrong judgement could become a loss for someone. It essential to show respect towards a contestant.

One must never be rude," he added. When asked about his stint on 'X Factor', Bhansali said, "I am still discovering it. I know I am born with
something within me but I am yet to establish it. However, it is for other people to judge me."

The director is looking forward to discover new talent through the reality show, which is very popular in UK.

"I would first look for great singer because it's a music show. He or she must in 'sur' then I would see what their eyes say," he said.
