During the lockdown, many directors across languages have experimented with shooting techniques using advanced technology. Some actor-directors shot themselves, being locked inside a room. Taking this opportunity further, the tech giants have been commissioning notable directors to shoot with smartphones. Vishal Bhardwaj is the latest to join the band. iPhone 14 Pro Models Demand Exceeds Production, Says Report.
Vishal, known for his aesthetic sensibility, has played with the theme of time travel in Fursat. Punjabi actor Wamiqa Gabbi shot to nationwide fame with the Disney Plus Hotstar series Grahan and the Netflix series Mai: A Mother’s Rage. Ishaan Khatter has proved his acting mettle in the debut film, Beyond the Clouds, by Majid Majidi. He was last seen in Phone Bhoot alongside Katrina Kaif and Siddhant Chaturvedi. Helmed by Gurmmeet Singh and written by Ravi Shankaran and Jasvinder Singh Bath the film failed to impress the audience at the box office. He will be next seen in a period war film, Pippa alongside Mrunal Thakur.
