Mumbai June 13 (IANS) Actor Saqib Saleem has shot for a new short film titled Aamad for Father s Day which falls on June 18.
Directed by Neeraj Udhwani for digital platform Terribly Tiny Talkies Aamad is a story about the pure relationship between a father and his son who is embarrassed that his dad is a kathak dancer.
The plot explores how the father-son overcome their personal apprehensions and start a new friendship by building their relation over a period of time.
Talking about the project Saqib said in a statement: I know Neeraj (Udhwani) for a while now as he wrote Mere Dad Ki Maruti and we meet often to discuss ideas. He shared the idea of Aamad with me and asked me what I thought.
When I read it I instantly fell in love with the story and I told him that he shouldn t look for anyone else as I want to do it. It s such a simple yet complex film as it speaks about the unsaid things in a father-son relationship.
Saqib was last seen on screen in Prawaal Raman s movie Dobaara: See Your Evil with his sister Huma Qureshi.
