“Bejoy Nambiar gives a lot of creative liberty to his actors, which is refreshing. It made us feel like it was just as much our story to tell as it was his. I remember there was one scene where Pulkit Samrat, Jim Sarbh, and I started improvising and building little moments that weren’t in the script. We just kept playing off each other and Bejoy kept rolling. He would encourage that kind of experimentation, but also knew when to help us rein it back. His trust in us fed into our faith in him,” said Ankur.
