I recently met my production designer Muneesh for ‘Buddham Sharanam Gachchami’ and he showed me the set designs with looks for each character.
This is the most fascinating part of film making. A script or story idea follows its own flow of emotions but for set design and looks, one has to do a lot of research.
I remember when I met Amit ji and showed him his looks for ‘Bhoothnath’ he reacted like a child. He was happily surprised. “ye kaun hai…?” He asked me after seeing his ghost look on his laptop.Ravi ji and I smiled.
There was an instant clarity in Amit ji’s mind after watching those character sketches that this is how he has to look. Even his make-up person Deepak Sawant was clear and excited to know, “toh ye look create karna hai..?”
