Billed as “provocative and anti-romance”, director Aadish Keluskar's 'Jaoon Kahan Bata Ae Dil' has been one of the most talked about films at this year's MAMI Mumbai Film Festival and its producer, Vinay Mishra, says they want the audience to see it as it is and without any cuts.
The film chronicles a day in the life of a Mumbai couple, who have a conversation about everything- from relationships, movies, politics to sex but things take a turn in the end as the sun goes down. 'Jaoon Kahan Bata Ae Dil' doesn't hold back, neither in the usage of provocative language nor in the depiction of intimacy to draw home a larger point.
“It's going to be tough. We do of course want a lot of people to watch it. We will have to figure it out. We are not prepared for cuts. What will you cut, where? I don't think we have really thought about censor. I am convinced we will find some mechanism to get it out,” Mishra said. He was speaking at the screening of the film at the 20th edition of Jio MAMI Mumbai Film Festival with Star.
Mishra, along with Preety Ali and Pallavi Rohatgi, has co-founded the banner Humaramovie, which has backed the film, and he said they can also look out for a digital release.
“Whether I have to self-release it on the Internet or get Netflix, we will figure out. This film is very massy but I don't know if masses can consume it because it assaults you. If that be the case, it needs to go out in all parts of the country, which is very difficult,” he says.
