Elated with the response at Busan, Kalki, in a conversation with 바카라, said, “What really moved us was the number of people who said that they wanted to call their mothers after watching the film. Most of the time, we take our parents for granted and this kind of reminds you that they would not always be there.”

Since ‘Goldfish’ is being seen by an international audience, is there a difference in the way people in India and abroad perceive content? To which Kalki asserted, “I think that there is an audience for such a film in India too. It might not be your mass audience, but there are people who would want to watch a film like ‘Goldfish’. Dementia is now a huge topic, and we have quite an ageing population in India and this dilemma of the kind of responsibility we want to take for our parents, is common in Indian families.”

Kalki further said that with the advent of OTT, the audience is now keen to see more diverse content. “The accessibility to watch more content is now easier because of OTT platforms. As the world starts to open, people start to understand each other라이브 바카라 cultures. At the same time, realise that we are not so different from each other despite the cultural nuances and belief systems that are different. ‘Goldfish’ is a universal subject, it is about facing our own identities, facing the disagreements we have within our families and closed friend circles.”

She added, “With OTT, there is content out there that has mature subjects. It is not just pure entertainment, and people are ready to talk about things which are slightly uncomfortable or make us think about life. It라이브 바카라 a great time to be an artist as well.”

Apart from Deepti and Kalki, the film also stars the prolific actors Rajit Kapur, Gordon Warnecke (lead in ‘My Beautiful Laundrette), and Bharti Patel (Featured in BBC series Doctors) in pivotal roles.바카라 웹사이트

In the film, Kalki라이브 바카라 character Anamika returns to a neighbourhood she barely remembers, to a woman who sometimes doesn’t remember her. So, how did Kalki – known for her fabulous acts in ‘Dev D’, ‘Margarita with a Straw', ‘Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara', and ‘Gully Boy’ – step into a role which is emotionally charged?

When asked, Kalki replied, “Both mother-daughter are completely in the dark about what to do. The preparation I had to do as an actor was two-fold. One was the identity crisis that I had to deal with. Anamika is a girl who calls herself Anna, and rejects her Indianness. She is very British and almost cold in the way she handles her emotions. The second aspect was being comfortable with this Cambridge-Oxford accent. Especially for the scenes with heightened emotions, I had to make sure the accent does not slip away.”

Last but not the least, Kalki showered praise on her co-star, veteran actress Deepti Naval, and said, “She is a versatile actress, and is extremely spontaneous. So while we were rehearsing, she did not give her full performance. When the take happens, something totally shocking comes out. So that라이브 바카라 wonderful to have around because you are jolted as an actor. That makes you a better performer because you are reacting in the moment.”

Set in London, ‘Goldfish’ is a UK production and is produced by Amit Saxena라이브 바카라 Splendid Films (USA) and executive produced by Pooja Chauhan.바카라 웹사이트바카라 웹사이트
