The Blackberrys Sharp nights – Director’s Cut event at Tote in Mumbai on Wednesday had Bollywood’s favourite directors dressed in their sharpest best.

Kunal Kohli: "A film set is the happiest place in the world. I’m more at home at a film set than at home. Something none of our wives can understand. I hope I die on a film set. Like Raj Kapoor said, jeena yahan, marna yahaan."
