We will see Renuka Shahane once again in a film, and this time it's an anthology, Stories On The Next Page streaming on Disney+ Hotstar from May 6. Her story will see her share the screen with dear friend Rajeshwari Sachdev.
"My creative pace is that of a tortoise because I'm extremely critical... I want to be back in front of the camera. I miss that so much,"
What was it like reuniting with Annu Kapoor for an Antakshari session after almost three decades? It was a magical day!
Even though the musicians and technicians were different, I was transported back in time.
Annuji and I were working together after a long time and there was so much catching up to do. I got married and became a mother after Antakshari, and he had two kids.
He wants to direct, I already have, so there was that creative journey to discuss too.
At the end of the day, we were sad to see each other go.
The way he throws up his hands in at the end, that hasn't changed with time.
(Laughs) It was difficult to recreate that energy and I checked out some of the earlier episodes of Antakshari before we started shooting.
The biggest compliment we've received is that many think it's a part of the '90s shoot.
What was shooting like back then?
Sa Re Ga Ma Pa and Antakshari were among the first reality shows, Gajendra Singh (producer and director) having successfully married the Western reality show format with Indian content.
There was a sense of responsibility that comes from being a part of an incredibly popular show.
The main thing was to build a connection with Annuji, the participants, and the audience which I focused on even during the ad.
