On taking up multiple responsibilities, he shared: "Screenwriting, songwriting, art, design, music, photography, and filmmaking are all part of filmmaking. Since childhood, I have been fortunate to be a jack of all trades thanks to my design school background and music tutoring, drawing, and painting. Someday I hope to be a master in one of them. The practice continues."He also goes to share how 'Aafat-e-Ishq' is different from the other movies in this genre and the director explained: "It is different in its narrative treatment, which attempts to combine magical realism and 'noir' comedy in its idiosyncratic take of love and lust."Adding about the songs in the film he shared: "The music of 'Aafat-e-Ishq' takes the story forward. Some of the songs in the film are diagetic, emanating from the film's narrative world. We have a colourful character played by Namit Das, who is a singer and performer. We had Namit, an accomplished singer, singing his songs so that his character is given credibility for the actor's performance. Gaurav, the music director and I have designed the music as an integral part of the narration and cinematic sub-text."On talking about his interest in filmmaking he said that he always wanted to pursue filmmaking: "At the National Institute of Design (NID), I wanted to be a filmmaker because it amalgamates all the arts - drawing, painting, animation, music, photography, set design, costumes, and choreography. And I love telling stories. As a director, filmmaking is challenging as you have to trust your vision to a team of sometimes more than 100.""Everyone has to share one's vision as they create all the pieces of the storytelling puzzle, while as a director, only you have the entire picture in your head. My art helps me a lot in this. I make many sketches, paintings, doodles, storyboards, which helps communicate that picture to my team," he concluded.'Aafat-e-Ishq' is streaming on ZEE5.
