Key Takeaways
Mumbai, Aug 3 (NationPress) The journey to success often comes with its challenges. Director Mohit Suri, who is currently enjoying the remarkable triumph of his blockbuster film ‘Saiyaara’, revealed that due to the overwhelming success of the film, he has struggled to dedicate time to his family. His evenings are consumed by monitoring the box office numbers, theater occupancy, and audience turnout for the evening screenings of his movie.
Consequently, his wife, actress Uditaa Goswami, has expressed some concerns about his hectic schedule. Yet, Mohit finds it a fulfilling experience.
Speaking with IANS after the phenomenal success of ‘Saiyaara’, he conveyed his happiness regarding the film's impressive collections.
He stated, “Every evening from 6 PM to 9 PM, I am glued to my phone, anticipating the end of the evening shows. Calls flood in, often filled with tears of joy as people share their reactions. I cannot fathom when another film will receive such an outpouring of love. It’s truly something extraordinary.”
He further elaborated, “I tell my wife that I’m not out partying, but the reality is I’m at home absorbing all this affection. It feels intoxicating. Just give me 2-3 weeks, and I’ll revert to my old self once the film completes its incredible run in theaters.”
The soundtrack of ‘Saiyaara’ is dominating the music charts, with the title track being a fan favorite. Additionally, ‘Barbaad’ from the album delves deeper, and its visual representation is a delight to experience.
Discussing the ‘Barbaad’ music video, Mohit described the shooting process as blessed, referring to it as magic.
He shared, “That scene where the two characters share their first kiss was not intended to be that long. I just kept the camera rolling, and the actors improvised, while I directed them through the mic. The lighting aligned perfectly. Sometimes, when everything clicks, it’s pure cinematic magic. We attempted to recreate that moment in subsequent takes, but it never felt the same. When you’re in sync, everything aligns beautifully; that’s the essence of filmmaking.”
