Cutting Chai with Bhawana Somaaya - Day 346

Young directors in demand

14.05. 2014

This is the time for debut actors and directors and which is why most production houses are launching new filmmakers. Akshay Kumar and Ashvini Yardi’s Grazing Goats unveiled the trailer of their second joint venture Fugly and the invited guests were treated to a stage dressed in crazy props from the film like a toilet seat and crazy mirrors. Everybody had a story to narrate about their shooting experience from director Kabir Sadanand, versatile actor Jimmy Sheirgill and the young and restless star cast. Ashvini Yardi said: ‘Fugly is a film that is very close to all of our hearts. It is a vibrant, youth centric entertainer it is funny and witty and packs a major punch. Akshay and I are delighted to introduce such a talented cast in this film, and feel that they have done a fantastic job in the film. We are all very proud to be associated with Fugly and we hope audiences will love it as much as we do.’ Many careers are dependent on the faring of the film as this is a new opening for boxer Vijender, a launch pad for Mohit Marwa who is cousin of Arjun Kapoor and Arfie Lamba who was introduced in a cameo in Slum Dog Millionaire.

It was refreshing to attend an event for a change not cordoned off by celebrity bouncers because the film introduces new faces. Infact the only body guards off the stage were those protecting the producer of the film, Akshay Kumar.
