Talking about his experience, Gyanendra says, “This film was an opportunity to put all my training as an actor to test. I had to use the craft in a way that it’s not visible and that required a lot of unlearning… Usually in our popular films directors ask actors to do more so that audience can understand and here I had a director who didn’t want to undermine the audience’s intelligence and asked me to just feel and be in the moment…It took me few days to realize this is exactly what I was trying to achieve when I was learning this craft in FTII”.
