The Indo-Canadian filmmaker, who has made a few short films earlier, says, 'I met producer Purnima Mead two years ago when I was in the US. We discussed the idea and it took me a year to write the script and dialogues. It's an intriguing story and we have shot it on a large canvas.' The movie, produced by Bibia Films Pvt Ltd, is currently in its last leg of shooting and will release this November.
He adds that his theatre background and a filmmaking course from Canada helped him realise his dream. Keshav elaborates, 'While theatre helped me extract the best performance from my actors, academics aided me to bring my vision on the big screen.'
Talking about his experience while working on the film, the director says, 'The biggest challenge is to make a believable movie. We want to present viewers with something they haven't experienced before. I'm sure they'll be treated to an entertaining film.'
