Shoojit Sircar Speaks About The Film
Speaking to Galatta Plus recently, Shoojit had shared that the film has been inspired by the life of his friend and that a large portion of the movie has already been shot.
He said about his next, “It is a slice-of-life film…There is no secret as such but since we are shooting after a long time — the last time we shot, it was back in 2019 before the Covid-19 pandemic happened — the idea was to just shoot the film and announce it when the time is ripe. Announcements were happening almost every day, so my friend and producer Ronnie must have thought that it was best to take it slow.”
The director added, “It has Abhishek Bachchan in it. There are other characters as well but it is predominantly an Abhishek Bachchan film. The problem is that the minute you announce a film, people will ask ‘Achha story kya hai batao (Please tell us the story).’ If I tell them the story, who will watch the film?”
