(sorry can’t do short captions 😭)
what goes behind making a film around food and people? honestly, just people. and all the love they carry with them. people who care enough to stay back longer than they should. people who somehow keep showing up even when the timelines feel impossible. and yet, this film came together and became the most honest thing. a film about different lives briefly finding themselves in the same room, over food, over conversation, over silence, over tiny moments that feel ordinary till you realise that’s the whole point of ‘being’. so grateful to
@probableena and the entire team at
@talentedagency for bringing this beautiful piece to us.
and i really don’t think enough is said about the real people holding films together. for me, it was
@janavi_sayani ,
@siriuslysuzie and
@shhhhloka . and man, i love these girls so much. they are sharp, ridiculously hardworking, endlessly capable and somehow still smiling through it all. and
@kelvinator_men who holds it all together when everyone else begins to lose it. we still haven’t broken our fun shoot streak and that’s all I’ll ever care about.
@rathorelakhan , not once did he approach a single frame with anything less than his whole heart. every difficult frame was met with a “let’s do it.” beneath the world’s most convincing resting bitch face is one of the sweetest people who needs to be reminded to smile lol
@vinayvgandhi , from watching me faint as an intern on a long form outdoor shoot years ago to now constantly making sure i’m okay through the madness of making films, thanks for everything.
@architgite , i genuinely think we only meet each other in sleep deprived states now. thank you for being the set of eyes i lean on when mine stop seeing clearly anymore.
@cha.loni , i still don’t understand how you pulled all of that off in a day, and i say this without glamorising insane timelines, you still poured so much care in every detail.
@palaksharma0102 always coming through, time and again.
It takes a beautiful bunch of people to make a film about people. and i think that love somehow finds its way into the frames. really proud of this one and the ones behind it ❤
