Hi,
Stumbled on your blog via Google. Noticed you've seen Manorama, six feet under (and given it a pretty good rating) Did you catch it at Osian?
I directed the film and would love to know what you thought of it.

Hey Navdeep,

Thanks a lot for stopping by.

Yes, me and a few friends of mine watched your film at Osian's and we all absolutely loved it.
A snapshot of what worked for me:
1) Amazingly funny dialogues and timings(I explicitly remember atleast 10 of them).
2) "You don't know what it's up to until the end" plot.
3)Rustic(Realistic) touch in accents(even in those nomads Abhay met in one scene).
4) Nice casting
5) Vinay,Vinay and Vinay

What could have been better:
1) Abhay's role or maybe his performance(I am not a fan of his but he was ok).
2) A slightly different ending as to what the minister was upto(something other than he being a paedophile).
3)Some more Yana Gupta mirages ;)

It's nice to see film makers keeping an eye on blogosphere.

Would love to stay in touch, reply back with your mail id if it works for you.

Thanks for the feedback.
It was supposed to be a 'quickie' of a film, really low budget and yeah, it has it's fair share of flaws.

More Yana is something I totally empathise with!
