Shakun Batra directed Gehraiyaan is without doubt one of the most talked about movies in Bollywood at present. With its ensemble forged of Deepika Padukone, Siddhaant Chaturvedi, Ananya Panday and Dhaurya Karwa, and its obvious theme of infidelity in relationships, the movie generated a great pre-release buzz. Now that it's out on Amazon Prime Video, director Shakun Batra says he needs to take a break after the movie’s launch and not hear or discuss it anymore.
Batra defined his mind-set throughout a dialog with News18 a few days earlier than the movie’s launch. “As a filmmaker, you are always eager to see how the film is received. The build-up to the release has been overwhelming, but it also makes you feel good, that people are looking forward to all the hard work you put in it. But yes, you’re also nervous, you hope you meet people’s expectations, and they can connect with it in the way the way you envisioned it. So yeah, I am excited, nervous, and a whole bunch of things. It’s too many things going on,” he says.
“Actually, if you ask me, I want to hide myself five days after release, because I don’t want to hear anything after that. I’ll be around till the 15/16th. And then I will need to clear out so many thoughts that I have. I want to hopefully take a little pause, at some point,” he provides.
Batra has at all times taken an off-the-beaten-track view of affection tales along with his earlier directorials Kapoor and Sons and Ekk Main Aur Ekk Tu, beneath the identical banner, Dharma Productions. Asked if Gehraiyaan is a more mature try at portraying Bollywood romance, he says, “Yes, it gets more complex. It delves into things that go beneath the surface, and that’s really what I enjoy. I enjoy telling stories where things are not straightforward. But honestly, I also feel like, now whatever I do next may just be completely the opposite. Because I feel like I’ve done it a few times, so it would be fun to try something else.”
Talking about his casting course of for the movie, Batra defined he was searching for actors who're comparable to the characters within the script of their actual lives. “For me, a huge part of casting, whether it’s Ananya, Dhairya or Deepika, would always be to see in their real life, who they are and how close are they to how I’ve written or imagined somebody. That’s the first thing I’m looking for. I’m not looking for how good they are in their performances. The first thing is like, how close are they already? Because then your work becomes less on set,” Batra elaborates.
Despite being an OTT launch, the thrill round Gehraiyaan was a minimum of that of a theatrical launch. Shakun says digital is a higher method of releasing this movie at this level. “I feel that’s the plus particularly given the place we're with COVID. It’s nonetheless very onerous to really feel utterly secure going out. It’s going to be a lot simpler. You simply have to sit in your couch, tune in once you need and the way you need. You don’t have to journey anyplace. It’s a win-win. I couldn’t have been happier to be sincere about that."
