‘Gurgaon’, is a cautionary tale that reminds us of the famous saying, what goes around, comes around. The film was selected at Work-In-Progress Lab of NFDC Film Bazaar in 2015, won the Prasad DI Award in the fiction feature category.
On being a part of this launch event, Anurag Kashyap said, “I saw Gurgaon last year and for me it is genuinely one of the best suspense thrillers, I’ve seen in the longest time and it’s in my list of best movies. The amount of tension the movie builds, it’s not only engaging but it also has some incredible performances. It’s worth watching.”
Talking about his directorial debut which he also co-wrote, Shanker said: “This film has been built and supported by incredible talent. The fact that it is ready for a nationwide release is evidence that anything is possible when we love and support each other. Come celebrate their work and be a part of it.”
Ragini said when she read the script, she was excited that the director saw her as an actor and not just as a bubbly girl out of a TV show.“To get an opportunity which is so creative, is very evolving for an actor. It was liberating for me as I explored a lot of untapped emotional areas and it was a journey of self-discovery. Shanker was very generous, so it was an enriching experience working on ‘Gurgaon’,” she added.
