However there was light at the end of the tunnel for Ajit finding solace in writing and filmmaking. The romance began when he started reading Premchand in school, which later blossomed into filmmaking. He first experimented with shorts and worked for a few German documentaries as well before making his debut feature Swizerland. Here he talks about the same and also a little about his other recent short film, Rammat Gammat.

The Power of Three Gauri Shinde, Nitesh Tiwari, Sujoy Ghosh
Close of the year. Closest to how big it gets in Bollywood. The last act of a play, they say, overrides everything you’ve seen before. So here it is, Indian Cinema rolling out in all its glory the most beauteous bouquet —Shah Rukh Khan as the grown-up guide to Alia Bhatt in Gauri Shinde’s Dear Zindagi [Alice Munro would be pleased?], Sujoy Ghosh creating a Durga not with 10 hands but with a mother’s heart in Kahaani 2, and Nitesh Tiwari taking leaps and bounds from his maiden Chillar Party to the million-dollar play field that’s Dangal. Bollywood saving the best for last; each of the three finish-liners setting their own tone—some breezy and some brutal. We speak to these filmmakers to give you a glimpse of what it means to be up for a truly grand finale.
