00:00Congratulations for the movie and the trailer is really intriguing and we are your fans,
00:06we are looking forward for the film movies in the theatre. So speaking about the movie,
00:14it's your debut in a modest film. Yeah, I'm having a debut after so long.
00:18And it's about math, and you know the movie from other films for children. So I want to ask,
00:29what's the scariest part, like that pre-handling the mood swings of the teenagers?
00:35Ah, definitely. In real life, I would say handling the mood swings of the teenagers for sure,
00:42no two ways about it. But in real life, I think it's about a mother's protective instinct
00:51that is raised when you see that your child is threatened. And that's something that I think
00:58is a base instinct in everybody, every parent across the globe. I wouldn't say that it only
01:04belongs to mothers everywhere. It belongs to everyone everywhere, every parent everywhere.
01:09whenever you see that, you know, there is something that is going to hurt your child
01:15or harm your child in any which way, you automatically feel the need to, you know,
01:20that androoni shakti nikalti hai aur suddenly ap superwoman ban jate ho, you know, kuch ajeeb sa,
01:28ye badlav a jata hai ap mein. Toh, kahani jo hai, the story is about evil versus faith.
01:38And that is the crux of the film, basically.
01:42And now the movie blends mythology and horror.
01:46Yes. Yeah.
01:47So what was the most exciting part for you, like the mythology one or the horror one that
01:53you said yes to the project?
01:55I said yes to the project based on the fact that it was a story. It's one of my favourite
02:02stories actually of Kalima and Rakta Beej. So what would happen if it came into today's day and time?
02:08What would be the result of it? And I said yes on the, on that basis, but then it became a horror
02:19later. And so yeah, that's how I accepted the film. The horror came later. But the story, the script,
02:28all of the, the way we have put it together, all of that came first.
02:32I think that there is a huge tradition in our country of, I wouldn't call them myths so much as an oral,
02:44oral culture really. So it's storytelling is a huge part of our culture.
02:57So these are things that, you know, ideas create, they create, they create,
03:11these things that, you know, they, ideas create,
03:17you know, this, you know, things that,
03:20they can just create,
03:25ideas create good ideas have a certain belief behind them and that belief has
03:32its own power as we know so I think yeah I think that we have a lot of all these
03:39old customs as you call it or rituals they have a lot of power because we have
03:44believed in them and we continue to believe in them
04:00no no we really only have two hours in the morning so you have to go and make the
04:27I think as a parent, yes, you have to protect them and but my children are much older now.
04:37My children are not so small.
04:39I have learned a lot of them.
04:42So now I have to accept my parents.
04:46Look, I have learned so long.
04:48You have to learn your lesson and to practice it now.
04:53And the only thing that you can do as a parent, as for teenagers, I would say is to listen to them and to see, to just sit down and listen to them.
05:08Sometimes just listening to them makes them also see your point of view and makes you also see their point of view.
05:15.
05:16.
05:17.
05:18.
05:22.
05:23How do you define this characteristic of a mother?
05:29.
05:30So I'll go so far as to say the first day that the child is born in this world.
05:36is the first day that the mother is born in this world is the first day that the mother is born in the world as well.
05:43So it's her first day as a mother, as well as the child's first day on earth.
05:44And that's something that maybe nobody realizes or gives enough weightage to.
05:50She's stumbling through and doing her best.
05:53And at the same time, moms have to show the world that they know that what they're doing, that they understand everything.
05:56.
05:57.
05:58.
05:59.
06:00.
06:01.
06:02.
06:03.
06:23.
06:24.
06:25I think the way children look up to their moms is like, she is a god.
06:30.
06:31.
06:32.
06:33.
06:34.
06:35.

07:19I think the most vulnerable phase of a mother is probably the initial three,
07:35four, you know, three, four months, I would say three, four, five months till, you know,
07:41the baby starts probably eating properly or whatever, because that's, like I said, it's
07:46your training round, it's the baby's training round, it's, it's training round for your routine,
07:53all of it to come into place and also for, it's also how you will be seen eventually.
08:01So, you have that pressure also.
08:03.
08:04.
08:05.
08:06.
08:19.
08:20Absolutely, absolutely, thank you.
