"I need to sort out my ideas about how I'll initiate my stint with the CFSI. My predecessor Nandita Das has been doing a very good job. The CFSI's recent film Gattu was exemplary. I hope to bring forth many more Gattus and Stanleys. But first let me catch my breath," Gupte has been quoted to have said.
