Confirming the same, the 3 Idiots director exclusively told News18, “Certain stories require a long format approach and not make into a film. The one which we are working on currently (with Vikrant Massey in the lead) is something that we found during Covid times. I’ll be working as a showrunner on the series and so I’ll be completely involved on the show. It is something that I am very happy about as I am excited about the script and the way it has panned out.”
For me, the platform doesn’t matter!
When asked if he would like to make his OTT debut as a director, he shared, “Yes, I’d love to someday have a story to tell. But honestly, for me the platform doesn’t matter. If it is for a television, it should be on TV or if it is a long format, make it for OTT.”
While the details of the show have been kept under wraps, the makers plan to shoot it over a two-month long schedule. The series is going to go on floors next month and it will be Massey’s fourth web series after Mirzapur, Broken But Beautiful and Criminal Justice.
