Prachi Tehlan to star in Sony SAB’s new horror comedy

On your way to success, you meet many new people. But remembering them and acknowledging their support later in life is not what everybody does. However, Prachi Tehlan is one among those who hold an immense amount of respect and love for every single person who contributed to making her who she is. Out of this respect and love, Prachi recently signed a new project – a horror comedy Tv show- despite her decision of staying away from television for a little while and saying no to big shows coming her way. 

Titled Band Baja Bandh Darwaza, the show is being produced by Maqbool Khan and Amitosh Nagpal under Tuk Tuk Picture Company. It will be on air from January 26, every Saturday and Sunday.

“When I got a call from the makers of this show, I just couldn’t say ‘No’ also because of the amazing script and this beautiful character they approached me for. Since last few months I have been focussing on films, and a break from television was a conscious choice.  But how could I deny working with people with whom I started my journey in this industry. Maqbool sir handled me like a small baby guiding me through all the minor details of acting and helping me mould myself into that setup.” said Prachi, adding, “I have emotions attached with this team and I really don’t mind confessing that I signed the project purely for the team involved in it. It’s their first project as producers and I am glad to contribute to their new initiative.

Talking about her experience working with the team again, Prachi stated, “It is always fun to work with creative people like Maqbool sir and Amitosh sir. They hold great experience in the field and have done some phenomenal work in the past years. For example, besides assisting in the direction of over 100 music videos, Maqbool sir has individually directed CG heavy shows including ‘Pyaar Ki Ek Kahani’ and ‘Fear Files’. Also, he has helmed some high voltage action drama in shows like ‘Diya Aur Baati Hum’ and ‘Prithvi Vallabh’. On the other hand, Amitosh has written lyrics for movies like ‘Oye Lucky, Lucky Oye’ and dialogues for ‘Hindi Medium’. He is as amazing an actor with amazing sense of humour. He has acted in Indian films like Dabangg, Besharam, Phillum and many more.”

Prachi will be essaying the character of a Haryanvi girl for one of their weekly series. The teaser is already out and the show will be telecasted on February 2 and 3, 2019. The show will see popular film actor Mukesh Tiwari making his debut on television. Besides him, other actors of the show are also known faces of theatre and film industry. As for her films, Prachi, the shoot of Mamankam will resume from January after a long gap. Also, Prachi has been traveling to Hyderabad for a few Telugu projects. There is a lot to come from her side. Just wait and watch.

Oscar Nominated Director’s film based in Kashmir finds itself in a tug of war for Film Certification

A few weeks ago, news reports had surfaced where Ashvin Kumar, India’s youngest Oscar-nominated director of the short film Little Terrorist found himself in a place where no filmmaker wishes to be. Being a creative medium, films have had a long-standing scale of issues with the CBFC over the years. With increasing methods to curb a voice, CBFC has always made news in terms of its varied reasons to reject or give incorrect certification to several films. And Ashvin Kumar’s next, No Fathers In Kashmir is currently is such a lurk. The film has had its own history now with the CBFC since July when the film first applied for certification. A process which usually would take 60-68 days took over 100 days to even get a certificate. The CBFC tagged the film ‘A’ in October despite it following all the lawful guidelines crafted by the board. 

No Fathers in Kashmir is a love story of two innocent 16-year-olds who are met with the same fortune of having lost their fathers who have disappeared in Kashmir with no certainty of their return. Interestingly Ashvin has made two other short films earlier Inshallah Football and Inshallah Kashmir both of which were first banned by the film certification board and later went on to win a National Award for each. Now when the filmmakers for their latest, decided to question and request for a revision of the certificate to U/A, the matter was applied to the FCAT, the final decision-making body for film certification. Upon the investigation of the matter, the FCAT in its screening which was held on 11th December, demanded the CBFC revising committee to give the film a proper hearing, in a written order asked them to watch the movie again and give it its justified certification within 10 days, which was on 21st December. Since then the CBFC has already removed the order and asked for a further extension to give its order on the movie. 

This happens to be the worst nightmare for a filmmaker, who’s invested time and creativity apart from money in making a film, especially when it’s independent. The tug of war between these two film certification bodies has left the makers of No Fathers in Kashmir in a very mucky space with no certainty of a release for its film. The film stars the two kids Zara Webb, Shivam Rana in addition to having an impressive ensemble cast comprising of Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Soni Razdan and Anshuman Jha.
