Chandrashekhar producer would love to make show on Gandhi
"Chandrashekhar" a finite fiction series that narrated the story of freedom fighter Chandra Shekhar Azad has gone off air. But the show might be the reason for the making of a project based on Gandhi.
"While working on Chandrashekhar I happened to come across a lot of untold stories on Mahatma Gandhi and his involvement for a better India. If given a chance I would love to make a show on Gandhi " Pathak told IANS.
On the response to his show that concluded last week he said: "The show did decent is what I can say. Topics on historical figures are not everyone s area of interest. However it is also important to let the audience know about such mega figures whose life journey can give goosebumps."
" Chandrashekhar did have a certain audience and from start till the end of the show these audiences were with us. I would say they were the true loyal audience."
Pathak also a popular writer has been associated with shows related to mythology or history. His next show "Mughal-E-Azam" is also a historical drama.
"I have my masters degree in Indian Culture and Literature. This is my area of interest and expertise. Maybe I was so involved in my studies that I resonate with historical or mythological shows mostly " he said.
He did try and move beyond his area of interest.
" Savitri was a horror show Ek Nayi Ummeed - Roshni was the first medical show in a practical approach brought to light. I have been the writer for (producer) Ekta Kapoor s saas bahu sagas " he said.
