Q+A "THERE'S NO 'PAN-INDIAN' FILM"

Q. Why did you want to direct Dobaaraa, a Hindi adaptation of the 2018 Spanish film Mirage?

Taapsee (Pannu) brought the script to me when we were shooting Saand Ki Aankh (2019). The Spanish film hadn't been released then; it was just a script for me. She had initially asked me to recommend a director who could direct the film with her in it. When I read it, I knew I should do it. I haven't attempted a mystery drama like this before.
