Even after garnering several awards and critical acclaim for his last film 'Ankhon Dekhi', actor-director Rajat Kapoor finds it difficult to bag a producer for his next scripts. "I am ready with three scripts. I have been meeting all kinds of people from all over he world (but things aren't working out). But this year, I am going to make it. I promise this year I am going to shoot my next film. I will beg, borrow or steal, mostly steal because begging and borrowing is not working, but I will make this next year," Rajat said.

His 'Ankhon Dekhi' only got a chance after he tweeted out his struggle to find a producer and Manish Mundra, of 'Raghu Romeo' fame eventually agreed to back the film. "If nothing works out, in June-July I will start crowdfunding and by September-October, I will start shooting. There are three scripts so I don't know which one I will start first," Rajat added. He said that despite his popularity, it failed to make enough money, which comes as an important yardstick for investors. "Everybody loved the film, yet it is funny that I can't find a producer. It hasn't become easy for me, I still have to struggle every damn time. It didn't make enough money. Finally, it is the box office which matters."

Visibly frustrated, Rajat said, "What people don't realise is, these things are not in your control. Nobody knows what will or won't work. My duty is, at least make something that you believe in."
