✨tum Ko....Paa Hi Liya!✨

chapter 23

"So sidharth this journey from theatres to sets! How do you feel like growning as a professional and as an individual? Tell us about that and things you experienced in this whole reign" vikas(interviewer) asked.

It feels great, it has been a great journey till now,i somewhat lived the life of my dreams, though there were numerous downturn in the whole process, my mind too fickled a lot of times. Like there were such moments when dissapointment harrowed inside me and that to a point when i almost gave up upon my dream to become a writer and filmmaker. But i would consider it as a normal human trait like u can't be motivated all the time in your life, thats a complete fallacy. Things go wrong around you but its up to you, how you are set to seek even the minimalist profit that it offers to you in the form of challenges. Bas, thats what i did. I may had thought of loosing upon my dreams but never on my passion and that kept me going and this is how life is ,it always ask you to make constant advances.

" wow! Quite intellectual. " vikas was quite amazed with his repartee.

"so how did this collab happened like how you and our esteem veteran filmaker came together fir a film?

"i would call it my good luck that i got an opportunity to work with The Vardhan mehta.By the way, let me tell you that I have gone through a lot of hardship for my scripts n writings! literally papad bele hain maine... like from facing consecutive rejections for my work just because it lacked the much overrated n awful glits n glamour to even ,if the scripts were accepted then the producers demanding me to make such absurd and nonsensical changes just to gain access into the category of the masses which used to left me nothing but frustrated . There were disappointments but I never compromised with my story n the way i write . And as i said it was my good luck to come across his production house He has been one of the finest filmaker of the 90s era. And a wise man as well, he saw my work and immediately called me up for a meeting and thats were it all started.

"hmm, very interesting.And I absolutely agree with you coz all this happens in the industry. Narcissism in the form of "jo bikta hai wahi tikta hai" actually exist.
So sidharth tell us about ur preference when it comes to movies, series ,drama, play n other aspects of your choice that played a crucial role in encroaching your passion for writing and filmaking.

See as far as filmaking is corcerned than its what i love doing and there im particular about certain things. But when it comes to entertaining myself i enjoy watching different genre. Like you would be surprised to know that in my teens and early twenties i thoroughly enjoyed watching yrf movies and a few dharma movies as well. Matlab that era had this enigmatic effect of seeing n liking things that used to be larger than life, a complete roller coaster of expensive and extravagant emotions. Har cheez over the top, hero ki entry se lekar exit everything. " he chuckled sarcastically. " even today if i look back into those days i can feel all those things . Early twenties were all about srk, kjo, yrf people were literally high on them .... And I have zero inhibitions in saying this. But on the contrary i got really really influenced n inspired by some offbeat and unconventional movies and a lot of Hollywood stuffs. I don't know if you have watched this movie called the SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION. beautiful movie truly exceptional. I can't even express ke main kitna jyada motivated n influenced feel kiya is particular movie ko dekhkar. Aur Ek cheez ka jo bad mein mujhe nasha hua vo tha irfan khan ka(chuckles). Like for me it was an absolute pleasure n treat to watch him on the screen. It was one of my dreams to do a movie or a play with him but unfortunately..... " his pressed his llips in a thin line

"that was quite saddening! The whole industry was in utter shock with the news of his passing.

"anyways moving on to the next question. Can you give a brief about the theme of your upcoming movie? There are rumors that this movie based upon one of Shakespeare play?
