how i made my movie at IFFI ....
It all started 33 days a go, on a Sunday. 33 dayslater, on a Thursday, it was all over. On ending, itdid not leave behind a handful of souls who werebroken, battered and bruised. Quite contrarily, itmade men out of a few boys who had stars in their eyesand a lot of ambition. This is their story, which hasits beginnings in Delhi, which transplanted itselfinto Goa and finally ended on a train journey.Sundays usually are fun. Church in the morning and amovie at the college junior common room after lunch.Seventy to eighty bodies crammed together in a roomdarkened by pulled over curtains, noisy by three oldfans and giggly by the girls who come to watch themovie. This Sunday was no different. The movie runningwas "collateral"- a movie that had Tom Cruise in anegative role for the first time. It was a movie thatshould have never been made in the first place. I satthrough it simply because I had nothing better to do.I was dozing off when someone suddenly shook me awake.It was a friend, Gautam Chandna, a man born intocomputing wizardry. He with his cute small boy faceand glasses stared down at me, upside down. "Get up,"he said, "there's a girl here to meet you, she islooking for the guy who made the documentary on cockfights".....
