Commissioned by Apple. Music, dance, drama, and a little bit of magic. Watch “Fursat”, a musical love story I shot for @apple.
About Fursat:
Apple has come up with a most ingenious way to highlight the capabilities of its flagship iPhones; the tech giant regularly produces short films, directed by world-famous filmmakers. These shorts are shot with the latest iPhones, and span a variety of filmmaking styles and genres. And now, Indian auteur Vishal Bharadwaj has joined an esteemed list of international filmmakers to direct a short film for Apple.
Titled Fursat, the 30-minute Bollywood-style musical was shot with the iPhone 14 Pro, and was released on YouTube on Friday. The film has been described as “a magical story about a man so obsessed with controlling the future that he risks losing what he holds most precious in the present.” Fursat stars Wamiqa Gabbi and Ishaan Khatter, who these days is credited mononymously as Ishaan. The short features an original soundtrack by Bhardwaj and lyricist Gulzar, with featured vocalists such as Sukhwinder Singh and Kailash Kher. Fursat has been shot by cinematographer Swapnil Sonawane, and features choreography by Shiamak Davar. “A traditional film camera comes with 10 people, 3 attendants and 10 boxes of lenses… you can’t move around. You can’t be quick. iPhone liberated me in that sense,” Bhardwaj said.
Ishaan was last seen in the horror comedy Phone Bhoot, and will next star in the war drama Pippa. Wamiqa has worked with Vishal on his Modern Love: Mumbai short, and will reunite with the filmmaker on his upcoming Netflix film ‘Khufiya’.
