Bollywood film Director Madhur Bhandarkar's latest creation Traffic Signal, scheduled to hit cinema screens during January-February next year, won accolades at the ongoing 37th International Film Festival of India (IFFI) where its first print was shown.

A Percept Picture Company's presentation Traffic Signal, depicts the life on the streets of Mumbai through a traffic signal where all types of people live, try to survive, jostle, and basically remain human.

Bhandarkar's latest creation will complete a trilogy in tune with his earlier critical acclaimed, Corporate and Page-3 films.

Speaking on the occasion, Bhandarkar said he was never interested in commercial cinema and is a happy man today since he is into making movies of a different genre.

"I believe that there are many such topics in our country that can be making good films in our country or that should be made into films. I always said that I am not at all a commercial film maker. As people say, I love doing films on issue-based topics or topical topics like Satta, Page-3, Chandni Bar or Corporate.

I like working on stories of human interest. My next film is Traffic Signal. What people face everyday and the industry that exists in Traffic Signal. I am happy that I try to make different kinds of movies," said Madhur Bhandarkar.

"Traffic signal has Kunal Khimo who was in Kaliyug, Nitu Chandra, Kankona Sen, Ranvir Shori, it is a picture that has 60 characters and Sudhir Mishra is the villain in the picture. It was filmed in Mumbai for 35 days and the duration of the movie is 2 hours 5 minutes," noted Madhur Bhandarkar, movie director.

The budget of the film is around Rs 40 million (Rs 4 crore) and will be released with 210 prints.

But for Bhandarkar, his film Satta produced by him in 2002 remains his most liked movie till date.
