Coming up, Gujarati director and Gujju hero's film 'Bhavai'

- In 'Bhavai', the hero is a young man from the village who is fond of acting and is given the role of Ravana. The actress who plays the role of Sita falls in love with him.

A young man from Gandhinagar, Gujarat, has dreamed of making a career as a director in Bollywood and has gained a prominent place in Bollywood due to his innate temperament and not giving up despite knowing no one in the film industry. Not only that, the film 'Bhavai' (Ravan Leela) directed by him is to be released in October. The director's name is Hardik Gajjar.

Having already decided to become a director, Hardik ventured into directing after mastering all the necessary aspects like film photography, editor, visual supervisor. As Visual Effects Supervisor, he has done more than 20 TV shows and 3 films like 'Sia Ke Ram', 'Casino', 'Hatim', 'Devo Ke Dev Mahadev', 'Chandrakanta'. Hardik has also received more than a dozen VFX awards. Hardik has spoken to me openly here about the film 'Bhavai', which remains interesting.

Is this film based on Bhavaikala? - In response to such a question, Hardik Gajjar said, 'No. The film dates back to forty years ago. At that time some theater troupes would go from village to village and camp for ten to fifteen days and play plays based on various subjects, especially religious stories. Even in 'Bhavai', such a theater troupe and the youth of the village are at the center. 'Bhavai' is a love story in which a young man from the village (Prateek Gandhi) is fond of acting and is given the role of Ravana, the owner of the theater. The actress (Andrita Ray) who plays the role of Sita falls in love with him.

The love of Ravana and Sita in the play causes a great uproar in the village, then what happens is more interesting.

Informing about the choice of Prateek Gandhi, the director says, "I needed a simple young man for this role. I also saw Prateek's plays and his film 'Rongside Raju'. He was chosen for the role of a village youth from 'Bhavai' as he was a perfect fit. The simple nature of the symbol before 'Scam 2' is the same today. No arrogance. He faithfully carries out the work assigned to him. However, let me clarify that 'Bhavai' was shot even before the scam was released. The movie's trailer has received millions of views. There has been a very good response and we are confident that a large number of spectators will go to the theater to see the film.

Before 'Bhavai' I made two Hindi films and then two Gujarati films 'Valam Jaaone' and 'Chandlo' which will be released soon. 'Valam Jaaone' is a romantic comedy film while 'Chandlo' is based on a short story by Kajal Ojha-Vaidya in which Kajal Ojha-Vaidya will be seen on the screen for the first time. In today's fast life, it is also necessary to have love. So I will continue to make films that explain what love is, he said.
