Makrand Deshpande explores the improbable idea of sleep workers with his upcoming film “Sona Spa”

Theatre is his first love, says Makrand Deshpande as his new film ‘Sona Spa’ explores the improbable idea of sleep workers.
Theatre is his mainstay and occasionally we get to see him in films, flaunting his overgrown, salt and pepper beard.

Makrand Deshpande returns as a director with Sona Spa, scheduled to release this month 22nd March, three years after his last film Shah Rukh Bola Khoobsurat Hai Tu. An adaptation of his play of the same name, the film explores the idea of hiring someone to sleep for you while you go about your work.
Here’s a catch. If someone sleeps for you, he/she will also have access to your dreams. The improbability of this idea and the limitation of narrating it on stage prompted Makrand to think of making this into a film. The film stars Naseeruddin Shah and theatre actors Aahana Kumrah and Shruti Vyas among others.

एकता कपूर और कन्नन ने प्रेरित किया वेद प्रकाश शर्मा को डायन के लिए


एक थी डायन की टीम जल्द ही 'डायन' नामक एक किताब लॉन्च करने वाली है। ये उपन्यास बहुचर्चित लेखक वेद प्रकाश शर्मा ने लिखी है।
वेद प्रकाश भारत के सबसे ज्यादा पढ़े जाने वाले लेखकों में से एक हैं। ये अपने दिलचस्प कहानियों को लेकर काफी लोकप्रिय हैं। अभी तक उन्होंने 176 उपन्यास लिखे हैं। लेकिन ये पहली बार है कि उन्होंने अलौकिक शक्तियों के ऊपर कोई उपन्यास लिखी है।
वेद प्रकाश शर्मा का कहना है कि इस विषय पर लिखने की प्रेरणा उन्हें एक थी डायन के निर्देशक कन्नन अय्यर और एकता कपूर से मिली। उन्होंने इस विषय पर पहले कभी कोई उपन्यास इसलिए भी नहीं लिखी क्यूंकि उन्हें अलौकिक शक्तियों पर ज़रा भी विश्वास नहीं था। लेकिन एक चर्चा के दौरान एकताऔर कन्नन ने उन्हें कुछ ऐसे किस्से बताये कि वेद हैरान रह गए और तब से उन्हें भी इन सब बातों पर थोड़ा- थोड़ा यकीन होने लगा। उसी वक़्त उन्होंने ये तय कर लिया कि इस विषय पर वो ज़रूर एक उपन्यास लिखेंगे।
वेद प्रकाश ने ये भी सफाई दी कि उनकी उपन्यास का एकता की फिल्म से कोई लेना देना नहीं है। ये उनकी अपनी कहानी है और एक थी डायन की कहानी से ज़रा भी मेल नहीं खाती है. दोनों कहानियों में ज़मीन आसमान का अंतर है।
वो इस विषय से इतने रोमांचित हो गए हैं कि उन्होंने इस पर एक और किताब जल्दी से लिख कर लॉन्च करने की सोच ली है।

'डायन' किताब को एक थी डायन की टीम - इमरान हाश्मी, हुमा कुरैशी, कोंकणा सेन, कल्कि कोचलिन और एकता कपूर मिल कर लॉन्च करेंगे।
