Timeless appeal
They are two of the Indian film industry’s finest actors. As much-acclaimed Vinay Pathak and National Award-winner Amruta Subhash share the screen space for the first time in their upcoming film Chidiya, their chemistry is more than evident. Undeniably, each is an individual in his/her own right with an enviable body of work. But when they get talking, you can sense a similarity in their thought process and sensibilities. First things first. What made them say yes to what seems like a children’s film? It was the script which, for Amruta, was like king/queen of cinema. The fact that Chidiya has taken 10 years to find a theatrical release is a reflection on an indie maker’s ‘tumultuous’ journey.
