Amole Gupte is working on Parineeti Chopra‘s ‘Saina‘ which is one of the most awaited releases.
Filmmaker, Amole Gupte, is popularly known for helming children’s movies like Stanley Ka Dabba. Now looks like he is all set to take on another project after Saina.
As Saina is releasing next week, Amole Gupte told Pinkvilla, “I would definitely want to explore the children’s space again. My next will have a large children’s presence, and the central protagonist will also be a child. I have registered a script and a title, it’s called Papa. Let see how that goes.”
On asking about the casting process Amole says “The cast is so candid that you won’t know the actor from the real person. Like I thought Divya Jagdale and Divya Dutta did a fabulous job in Stanley Ka Dabba as Mrs Iyer and Rosy Miss respectively, and I also did a good job as Khadoos in the film. So that kind of acting I am talking about. And this time again since I have to dip into my own resources, I thought why do I not play a pivotal role in the film.”
Other than being a successful filmmaker, Amole is also an actor and has worked in movies like Kaminey, Singham Returns, and more recently in Mumbai Saga. On being asked about his future in acting, he says “I don’t want to because I want to focus on Papa and want it to have a different texture. The tonality of the film should not remind you of some earlier work. I am trying to hold back because with the web and OTT happening, I get more than 5 acting offers a day. But in the current phase, I am just saying no to everything, because I just want to take some time out and see what I can do even with my mind-body mechanism even as an actor.”
