MUMBAI: National Award-winning filmmaker Hansal Mehta has worked in different genres, and he admits he is not afraid of failure but of repeating himself.

Asked if he is trying to shift gears from hardhitting films to softer fare as "Chhalaang", Mehta said: "I have always been shifting gears. So, my attempt is to keep trying different things. I am not afraid of failure. I am afraid of repeating myself."
