Whatever I know about acting, I learnt from our director Shashank Khaitan on the sets of Dhadak. of course my mother Sri Devi is my inspiration all these years.Though I have seen her 5 films only,I grown up watching her, and I believe that it is your life experiences that teach you alot.
His decision to take on an enormous responsibility is where the journey of ‘Dhadak’ began. The intensity of responsibility I have felt at every stage during the making of this film is truly incomparable.From the very first moment of deciding to take an incredible blockbuster classic into my hands to garner inspiration from, to this moment then I am ready to let my creation out into the world, this feeling has resonated with me. I feel responsibility towards my two new talents I am presenting to the world, towards my producer who has supported me in this journey through sheer belief and encouragement, towards my team who have been integral in making my vision a reality and most importantly towards my audience who have showered me with love in the past and have expectations from me to create something better each time. But this is a responsibility I decided to take upon myself with the strong self belief, that I would put my best efforts to deliver. When I decided to make an adaptation of ‘Sairat’ , I had a vision in mind. A vision to not in anyway diminish the brilliance of the original but to have my own interpretation of the magnificent love story. Satisfaction came to me on this journey through my two talents performing everything I had in mind so brilliantly in front of my eyes, that they became the heartbeats of my film. My confidence was driven by my excellent team, who shared the responsibility I had taken on at every stage, which really makes this film all of ours. Every hesitation, doubt and confusion I have faced in the process has led to this time of clarity where I feel immensely happy and satisfied with this part of my journey. My team and I have taken on this challenge in stride and put in all our efforts to create something that we could all be proud of. And now, comes the most important part of this journey, opening our creation to the world. I hope I am able to portray the responsibility I have taken on and make everyone as proud of ‘Dhadak’ as I am
Directed by Shashank Khaitan
