He is often called the" Godfather of Gore"( a title also given to Lucio Fulci), though his film career included works in a range of exploitation film genres including juvenile delinquent films, nudie-cuties, two children's films and at least one rural comedy. On Lewis' career, All Movie wrote," With his better- known gore films, Herschell Gordon Lewis was a pioneer, going farther than anyone else dared, probing the depths of disgust and discomfort onscreen with more bad taste and imagination than anyone of his era." <SEP> Shankar started his career as an assistant director to Siddharth Anand in" Anjaana Anjaani"( 2010).
