A different sexuality, yes. Like any other love story, yes. But sans sarcasm, its just stating the fact.
Again, acknowledging the culture in the 1990s, anyone who does not fit predefined norms was conveniently labelled as the 'other'. Also I somewhere want to bring in the connotation of this love of Aadya and Aachal belonging to that space where there are no rights or wrong, which for sure is not in this world but the 'other' world. These two girls share a very intense love for one another which surpasses all logic.
As I have always said, I didnt think of the story, the story thought of me and came to me. I feel stories have a life of their own, and they choose people to find a form in this world, and this one chose me.
I grew up in the 90s, the simple non-complicated era where Bollywood romance ruled my life. I am a complete Yash Chopra film fan and I wanted to bring in all that I miss in my film. Love letters, land line phones, random meetings at the bus stop and many more. It is like a tribute to our teenage years. And Aadya and Aachal fall in love in that period, when there was absolutely no reference point or information, they dont even know that such a thing happens in the world. They feel what they feel and they act on it because of the force with which love hits them. I just wanted to explore this space.
I just wanted to tell a story, which is as realistic as possible, like straight out of Indian streets. My Aachal and Aadya are not glamorous but they are real and really beautiful. Aadya and Aachal are one among us.
Many! From finding actors to finding producers, each day was a war within and out; grit and stubbornness got us through it all I suppose.
This is a question that they can answer better. But I think, it is anyway a difficult process if the character written is far from the original person that the actor is. After having lived the cellphone and internet era, it was difficult for them to erase that aspect of their lives and just be in those times. I wouldnt let them use their cell phones during the shoot.
I have a love story that I have written which involves a transgender, again straight out of Indian streets. That one is based on a real incident that I witnessed in Bangalore. Lets see if I ever get a chance to make it into a film.
I am actually not trying to give any message. If the other love story manages to engage audience for the time they spend watching the episodes, it is good for me. If they get any message out of it, then it is great.
I just wrote about a relationship and two people falling in love for the first time. Its a romance between two people, their gender doesnt matter.
I struggled to find producers because of the theme of the story. Hence, the thought of finding distributors was particularly daunting. In a web series format, it is just between me and my audiences: let them decide what to make of the story.
