WHICH FILM FESTIVALS ARE YOU TAKING IT TO
After premiering at the Toronto Film Festival itrsquos going to BFI London Festival for the European launch followed by Pusan International Film Festival
GIVE US A GRIPPING REASON TO WATCH THE FILM
And yet we are not pronouncing our verdict in the film When investigators could not arrive at a final conclusion even after 7 long years how can we What this film will do is put it all in perspective offer clarity
DID AVIROOK SENrsquoS BOOK ldquoAARUSHIrdquo INFLUENCE YOUR STORY
The book came out after I was done with my shoot But our own research was extensive and painstak-ing We spoke to everybody possible who was related to the story This included interviews with Rajesh and Nupur Talvar
WHAT WAS THE TOUGHEST PART TO SHOOTThe murdersheartwrenching
