For me, it was a privilege to have photographed him candidly. I think MJ was a divine and brilliant artiste. He gave me unprecedented access. It was a phenomenal experience,' Mehta, brother of Canada-based Indian filmmaker Deepa Mehta, told IANS.

Beyond that Mehta's lips are sealed about what really happened at Neverland. At that time he was a freelance photographer and worked for prestigious magazines.

Mehta entered the world of cinema with 'The Forgotten Woman', a hard documentary to portray the reality of the widows of India. His feature film is 'Cooking With Stella' that looks at a classic Indian tragedy, that of servants and employers, and currently he is busy with the world premiere of the movie at Toronto International Film Festival, starting Sep 10.
