Adi Shankar is an interesting guy, just seems to go out and make the movies he wants to see.
Agreed. I saw an interview with him where he explained that he appreciated Dredd Day (many years ago) where fans got the film to the number 1 spot on Amazon's chart in order to promote interest in a sequel.
But as he further explained, all of the investors lost money on the original film, so getting anyone to invest in a sequel was an impossibility.
