00:00How did you come up with the script?
00:05Shuchi and Richa have been friends for a long time.
00:11They came up with the script.
00:14They have been working on it for a long time.
00:17We got the idea of starting a production house from there.
00:23And we made it strong.
00:25While this film was being made, we started receiving more scripts.
00:28We wanted to start a universe.
00:34It was a very good script.
00:38For actors, it's a dream to have a script like that to work on.
00:44We are lucky that this script made us producers.
00:49We were thinking about it.
00:51But it was a dream that we would do it someday.
00:53The script brought us closer to the timeline.
00:59When we got the grants, we got more confidence.
01:05We started working on it.
01:07We are here today to talk to you two days before the release.
01:10How did you get the script?
01:14We were working with a very good casting director, Mr. Dilip Shankar.
01:18He selected these people through an open casting call.
01:24There were other faces too.
01:26But we liked their performance.
01:30And Kani, who is a very established actress.
01:33Her film is now going to Golden Globes.
01:36She also auditioned for our film.
01:39We felt very good that she gave us so much respect.
01:42A very good and an excellent cast got together.
01:48So the film's level got better.
01:51A good actor always makes the script better.
01:58It was very unbelievable.
02:00A lot of good things were happening together.
02:03We got to play a role which was written so well.
02:08We have such a good team.
02:15There were a lot of women in our crew.
02:18It changed a lot.
02:20We were able to talk to each other comfortably.
02:23I felt very safe.
02:26You can't believe how good things are happening together.
02:31I am feeling very grateful for the experience.
02:37I am also feeling very responsible.
02:40I have a lot of responsibilities on this platform.
02:46The way the audience will connect after watching the film.
02:51The way the conversations will start.
03:01It was a dream.
03:03Sometimes it still feels like a dream.
03:06It is a very honest film.
03:20I was in a boarding hostel when this was being shot.
03:24It was a world which I was very familiar with.
03:27I was very excited to get started.
03:30I got to know that I was locked.
03:32The entire process, the people with it,
03:36are so good that I hope all my projects
03:40have such people working with it.
03:44No, it won't happen.
03:46I was told that.
03:54I had a hope that they will spread in the industry
03:58and will continue to improve.
04:00It happened.
04:02There were two girls on Ali's set.
04:05They were light women.
04:07We are going to do the second edition of the same program.
04:10It is called Undercurrent.
04:12That program was also a woman's idea.
04:14We have a team member named Tanya Negi.
04:17She thought why not do this.
04:19We had never done it before.
04:21We took advantage of it.
04:23We didn't know anything.
04:25We said we can try.
04:26If someone was experienced,
04:28they would have refused.
04:30We got a lot of support from Light & Light.
04:32Hopefully, we will do the second edition
04:34in the coming year.
04:41He has gone crazy.
04:43We managed it somehow.
04:45There was a comedy going on.
04:47I think it is documented somewhere.
04:51Someone comes to a place and tells us
04:53to decide the menu.
04:55Suddenly, we get a call
04:57that there is no menu here.
04:59The truck has stopped here.
05:01The tempo has not reached the set.
05:03People are starving.
05:05Suddenly, we had to decide
05:07that we have to pay more attention here.
05:11There is a film crew, set and a film is being made.
05:16We divided ourselves.
05:20We started running.
05:21We went to Dehradun.
05:23We had to be there on the set constantly.
05:26There are a lot of things
05:29that go into making a film.
05:31These were new learnings for us.
05:34We got married.
05:36We made this film.
05:38Everything went well.
05:45Actually, we both take calls.
05:47We pick the project
05:48that you should lead.
05:50I will lead this project.
05:52We divide the work like this.
05:54It takes years to make a film.
05:57First, there is scripting.
05:59Then, we send it here and there.
06:01We fine tune it.
06:03Sometimes, there is an edit.
06:05We are both busy.
06:07We are actors and parents.
06:09We have to divide.
06:11For example, Papita will lead this.
06:13There are some crooked people
06:15in the industry who join us.
06:17This is a group of crooked people.
06:20There are a lot.
06:22There are a lot.
06:24Abhintosh Nagpal is crooked.
06:26Aakash Bhatia is crooked.
06:28Aakash Bhatia, Ashutosh Pathak.
06:30Who else?
06:32There are a lot.
06:34We keep doing it.
