filming I AM A LOVE ADDICT
Hey,
Just returned after a hectic day at Jim Corbett drove yesterday night, reached in the morning; saw all the locations; finalized deal and returned back to Delhi all within less than 24 hrs.!
The best part is the film '69 - opposites attract' is on (though there are huge budgetary constraints) but like always it is my and my team's passion that will see 69 through - I am sure of that.
The resort is fine but the rooms are very good and hopefully the service too should be good - atleast today it was, as I savoured some grilled delicacies. My friend and the Brazilian model, Luida - with whom I shot that crappy ad-film told me that the grilled fish was the best she has had in India.
Well, these are few of the blisses of Independent cinema.
Yesterday I said I would talk about Independent cinema.
To quote Aamir Khan from the article in ET on January 31, 09 verbatim -
Quote
When you say the film is an 'indie', the connotation in film parlance is someone who's struggled to make and sell the movie; someone who didn't have access to sufficient funds or the backing of the film industry. Which has certainly not been the case with Slumdog.
Unquote
Aamir took an exception when media referred to Slumdog Millionaire as an independent film!
My respect for Aamir Khan grows manifold, everytime I hear him speak on cinema - he has got the real understanding of cinema - hope he bankrolls some 'inde' features; as with him pooling in his creative 'juice' - the films would sure be a treat to watch!
