Few months back, we had put a post on “The Other Way“, a film by Aniket Dasgupta and Swathy Sethumadhavan documenting the indie filmmaking scene in India, and they were trying to raise funds for it through crowd-funding. Good news is they have managed to raise the funds for it and have just released its first look.
I have always felt that we have a terrible record when it comes to documenting our cinema and the stories surrounding them. A film like this one, Dungarpur’s Celluloid Man, Jaideep Varma’s film on Sudhir Mishra – we need many more such docus.
So check out the first look.

Why is it so important to ‘define’ what Indie cinema is? I mean picture banao kisi bhi tarike se…backed by studio or not. We are interested in the movie…may be also in how it git made (if it actually faced a lot of hurdles)…but we are not really bothered about whether it falls in the Indie category or not. Give us good cinema and we’ll watch. Period.
By the way, this one looks interesting.
