I am back in Delhi after the recce for a film that we (My company) are line producing. We travelled to Ludhiana and it was hot as hell, dusty as can be and there were hot winds blowing. I should have been cowering and complaining but my heart was celebrating. This is my element. It’s where I belong.  I think two years of the somewhat sanitised sets of Mere Khwabon Mein Jo Aaye has me craving to go back to the documentary setting that I know. While working on documentary one lives with heat, cold and winds - its physical deprivation that feeds the soul.

 I can’t wait to start on my film. “Kajarya”. This time I’m going down and dirty. Gritty and real. But I have to hold my horses and wait till all deals are signed and in place and we can actually start pre-production.

Back in Delhi, it’s so hot, but i must be feeling really happy because the heat feels like deep heat that warms my insides.
