What do you keep in mind probably the most about this challenge?
Pyaar Ishq Aur Mohabbat was a movie I shot in what I really feel are a number of the most scenic and exquisite nations in Europe. That’s how I visualized the movie. I needed to shoot it in lovely locations—and to me, Switzerland is breathtaking. So is Scotland, which stays barely unexploited and even underrated. It has beautiful views—lakes, hills, mountains, and the beautiful countryside. And a variety of sheep! It jogged my memory of New Zealand in some methods. Not too many individuals, very wet and coastal, and the locals have been extremely heat and hospitable.

So particular on many counts?
It was a really fulfilling expertise. I launched Arjun Rampal and Kirti Reddy in that movie, so it holds a particular place in my coronary heart for launching them. Arjun was a buddy of mine, and I’ve at all times felt he’s a really wonderful actor. That added to the general pleasure of creating the movie.

And naturally, Viju Shah’s music?
Sure, I imagine we created a ravishing soundtrack—one thing fairly totally different from the standard music you and I’ve labored on prior to now. His type was distinctive, and we have been each making an attempt one thing experimental. Pyaar Ishq Aur Mohabbat was additionally the primary romantic movie of my profession. I don’t assume I’ll ever do one other. That was my first and possibly final foray into romance.

Why wouldn’t you do one other romantic movie?
I’m not a really romantic form of director. So for me, making an attempt a movie in that style made it all of the extra particular. I additionally do not forget that the movie was shot totally from begin to end with out interruption. We have been continually transferring throughout nations. I can’t recall which got here first—Scotland or Switzerland. I feel possibly it was Switzerland. However sure, the movie had a really distinctive storyline, and the journey by means of these areas was an enormous a part of the expertise.

This was my first evaluate on a nationwide platform.
That’s beautiful to listen to. Personally, it’s a particular movie for me too. I shot the whole movie overseas. I had executed Vishwatma largely outdoors India as effectively, however this one was totally an out of doors shoot. Even the sequences that appear to be they have been shot in India have been really filmed in Scotland. In the long run, I used to be fairly glad with the best way the movie turned out. It was an awesome expertise capturing in overseas lands and capturing areas that hadn’t been seen on display earlier than. In case you watch the movie, you’ll discover most of the backdrops are pristine and untouched—virtually virginal. That was a key factor for me: the areas, the cinematography, the songs, and the general temper have been all meant to move the viewer.
