00:00When I came on board on this film, there was already a story, screenplay, which was being
00:10worked on.
00:11When I read the screenplay, which was written by Parvez and Aseem, I realized that this
00:19is actually a story very similar to one of the old stories that we have all as children
00:26have heard, which is Savitri and Satyaman's story.
00:29So I consciously after that stage, I started bringing about those similarities into the
00:36screenplay.
00:38And to make it into a modern day version of Savitri and Satyaman, you know, first of all
00:45to obviously, there were many changes that were made, that was mythology, this is reality.
00:51And that is even more the reason why we wanted to keep the film very real.
00:56People should feel the angst of this woman who is actually literally going from pillar
01:03to post trying to figure out how do I help my husband?
01:07How do I do this?
01:09Okay, so that actually was the base of starting the story, which is, yes, similarities with
01:17Savitri and Satyaman's story.
01:18But the main thing about it is the reality of what will happen if a woman actually goes
01:24through this, in reality, what would happen?
01:27And that was what we based the entire film on.
01:34So the red dot is her suhaag.
01:38So it is subtly put there.
01:40It's put there as a very subtle messaging.
01:43I'm very happy that you're asking this question because it is not in your face.
01:49You know, it is there.
01:50It is just about there.
01:51And the whole idea was that subtly, whether it's the promotions, whether it's the poster,
01:58whether it's the title, whether it's the film, the performances, everything is loaded with
02:04layers of messaging that is put out there.
02:07And one of them is this, that the red bindi, it's like her bindi.
