"We need to face lots of troubles right from getting a girl to permission for shoot in some areas..."
So why do you pursue engineering rather than Viscom or other film courses ?
I'm just doing short films for the love & passion I have for it..I did not have serious ambition when I finished 12th...so I got into B.E as it has become like a rule for every young man out there...with the help of few friends we started making films... I have started atleast 5 films...never completed one...owing to many reasons of which I have shown some in my film itself...

What do you think to be the success of 'Mokka padam' ?
Again....the success of mokka padam was its quite similar to every budding film maker's life....we need to face lots of troubles right from getting a girl to permission for shoot in some areas...so everyone could relate to it...other people also enjoyed since the humour was not based on technical problems only, 'the external problems' we showcased.

Was the film 'mokka padam' being inspired from your own experiences..
Ofcourse ya...inspired by my own experiences...actually we ended up doing it only after we failed to start a film(planned for 5 months) owing to many reasons....
that film which we planned so hard....we could not even start shooting regarding many people backing out in the last minute...especially 2 girls..

"Above all...getting a GOOD LOOKING girl is difficult"
In a scale of ten, how do you rate yourself and your films
I will rate just above 5...
What do you think as your negative points ..
I have many negatives...I'm not technically strong...I need more experience in direction...as of now...story, screenplay and dialogues are the only things I'm comfortable with...'direction' - I'm just an amatuer...now learning!!
What are the difficulties in short film making in your opinion ?
oh...there are many problems....too many infact...most important is man management...we can never expect our entire cast to be free on our day of shooting.suddenly one fellow will have commitments and your shoot is cancelled.. then money... permissions & stuffs...& above all...getting a GOOD LOOKING girl is difficult and there are much more..we get used to it...
