Akshat Verma, director of 'Mama's Boys', says he can't understand what's wrong about experimenting with humour.

Delhi Belly writer Akshat Verma's directorial debut has been scrapped over budget issues

Writer Akshat Verma, who garnered immense acclaim for his screenplay of the Imran Khan starrer 'Delhi Belly', is all set to make his directorial debut

Akshat Verma's film 'Kaalakaandi' which stars Saif Ali Khan along with Kunaal Roy Kapur, Akshay Oberoi, Deepak Dobriyal, Amyra Dastur has had a moderate week at the box-office.

'Delhi Belly' director Akshat Verma, who has recently released his short film 'Mama's Boys' online has given a spin to the epic, Mahabharata.

Akshat Verma’s first film as a writer, 'Delhi Belly' (2011), was a product of his Delhi experiences, even though he grew up in the "bubble of Delhi University’s north campus", where both his parents were professors. His second film, and first as director, ‘Kaalakaandi’, is being watched for the same promise of irreverent realism. That irreverence is very much a part of his psyche, with his honest take on cinema as well as how the country consumes it.

The Delhi Belly team, including Vir Das, Abhinay Deo, and Akshat Verma, reminisced about the film's chaotic production, from managing Imran Khan's massive fanbase to filming risky scenes without safety measures. Aamir Khan's ambitious decisions, like constructing entire sets, significantly impacted the budget, leading to humorous clashes between the production team and the star.

Saif Ali Khan has marked his return to experimental cinema with ‘Kaalakaandi’, as he collaborates with the writer of the zany ‘Delhi Belly’ – Akshat Verma.

‘Kaalakaandi’ garnered Rs 50 lac on Monday, taking the total collection to Rs 3.4 crore. The film had opened to Rs 1 crore on Friday, followed by a collection of Rs 95 lac on Saturday and the same amount on Sunday.

Making it big in the film industry without a godfather is hard but Akshay Oberoi said he never lets go of hope.

Director Abhinay Deo says he and writer Akshat Verma are busy right now with their individual projects but few years down the line, they hope to team up for a sequel to their 2011 hit film "Delhi Belly".

The fast-paced trailer of Saif Ali Khan starrer 'Kaalakaandi' drew major attention for the actor's quirky look, as well as the bold dialogues. According to reports, the film has now been cleared with one cut and has been given a U/A certification.

Ever heard of a wedding song with a psychedelic twist to it? Well, that's 'Kaala Doriya' (originally a Punjabi folk song which is traditionally sung during weddings) for you from Saif Ali Khan's 'Kaalakaandi'.

Going by reviews and fan reactions, Saif got a thumbs up for essaying his role brilliantly with some good support by Deepak Dobriyal, Vijay Raaz, and Akshay Oberoi.
