" It's a documentary, Its should touch ones heart, i don't want it to look like regular documentary. what do you suggest ? " Aditya Bhasin said.

" What if you owned a 16mm film camera and shot with it ? Wouldn't you like to shoot with 16mm anyway ? Lets do a mix between that and digital. Lets Look and feel different from other documentaries. We will automatically STAND OUT "

I want to try and do something different " i said
Gaurav Kulkarni shot it beautifully and is always open to suggestions and this is what we all 3 have achieved together

When i am grading a commercial all i think is neat, clean, glossy beautiful look and forget totally about the way i grade films.

While Grading films and short films i look out for FilmStocks, Textures, Lens and Camera effects. Two contrasting worlds !
