00:00The world of Qazi is different, it runs on its own, no one has seen Qazi till now.
00:12It is mentioned in the show but it never comes in front of anyone.
00:16People think that it is a ghost, maybe it doesn't even exist.
00:20Maybe it doesn't even exist, people just take its name to scare people.
00:25But when it comes in front of you, it is absolutely crazy.
00:30And I liked this about this character because there is a lot of speculation about how this character will be.
00:38But our planet Lakshmi is very important for Qazi.
00:42That's why Qazi has to come in front of himself.
00:46So yeah, that is Qazi.
00:48But you don't want to meet Qazi.
00:50You should be happy with Chunky Pandey.
00:52Because if you meet Qazi, you will be like...
01:01My director has made me do the whole process.
01:05But if you ask me, one of my favourite films is a Hollywood film called Usual Suspects.
01:13And the principal character in that film, Kaiser Soze, who was played by Kevin Spacey,
01:18he is quite similar to Qazi in Griha Lakshmi.
01:22It's not the same but there are a lot of similarities.
01:25So I tried to...
01:27Not his performance because he is an amazing actor.
01:31He has won 3-4 Oscar awards.
01:33But just to take that little character from him, it helped me a lot.
01:38So yes, that's how I prepared for Qazi.
01:41There is a big villain hidden inside me.
01:44Which I always want to show people but I can't.
01:47But I do show it on screen.
01:55Yes, yes, I get very excited when I have to murder people.
01:59I am joking.
02:06See, the OTT that has been made, I feel it is not meant for films.
02:11Because you watch films on a big screen.
02:14Because when we make a film, we make it in 2-3 hours.
02:19We tell you the whole story.
02:21And we want your full attention to be with us.
02:24We want to make you laugh, make you cry.
02:27We just want to entertain you.
02:30So when you watch it on OTT, you pause because you get a call.
02:35Or you go to eat, or someone comes to meet you.
02:38And when you come back to watch the film, you don't enjoy it.
02:42So it is not a medium for films.
02:46We should not confuse that.
02:48On OTT, watching shows is a lot of fun.
02:51Because there is intrigue in the shows.
02:54And you keep thinking what will happen in the next episode.
02:57Shows are also like full films as an episode.
03:01If you watch it.
03:02So, especially the way they finish the episodes.
03:06So they are two different mediums.
03:08And of course, it will always be long live cinema.
03:11But of course, very liberating for artists.
03:14Because they get so many opportunities to do so much.
03:17And because of OTT, so many of our talents.
03:21Who didn't get acknowledged, who didn't get fame.
03:25They have suddenly come into the mainstream.
03:27And it is so nice to see them.
03:29These hidden gems.
03:30We used to think, where were they for so many years?
03:34So of course, it has been a great discovery for so much talent.
03:37That is available in the country.
03:39And as I say, today is the best time to be in the entertainment business.
03:43Because you are getting work.
03:46Because of social media, you are becoming famous.
03:49So it is a great time to be around.
