Shooting - Day 1
Cannot tell you all how much I enjoyed the shooting today. Dont know if I have mentioned in this space that we changed the railway station to a village bus stop. Let me describe how the day went.
We started my place at 7 am in the morning and reached the location at around 8.30 - that itself was an hour later than when we wanted to start. Then the breakfast came late and by the time, we could start the shoot it was 10.30. We wanted to start at around 9 or 9 30. But then the actual shooting more than compensated for all the disappointments of the day.
We started with the first scene where the boy walks along the nature's trail. Gosh ! I was so amazed by Sunil's creativity, his team and the way he was in complete control of the shooting. He took the shots of this scene exactly or much better than what I had imagined in my mind. We shot Mohan ( Arun ) walking on the stone boulders and along the lake. And what shots the director took :) - I dont want to divulge more - coz it will spoil the fun for those of you who will be watching the movie.
After a gruelling 3 hours besides the lake , we decided to return back to have food and resume after that. We went back to have food at around 1.30 - but the food wasnt ready and by the time we came back after food it was around 2.30-3 pm. Then Chitkala had to get ready - she is doing the role of the stranger .
By the time she got ready it was around 4 pm. She comes out all ready with make up , false hair and all - and Sunil gives one look at her and blasts the makeup guy ! He wanted the artists with very little or no makeup . He makes the makeup guy to rub off the makeup he put - I am so glad he did that - Coz Chitkala started looking her playful , cute self again - with makeup the innocence on her face was gone. The false hair was also gone :) - so much for the hard work we did yesterday night !
Then we started the canteen scene. The scene was really very very picturesque ! But sadly, we couldnt complete the scene - coz it became dark by 5 30 . Sunil was growing impatient after 5 pm and was keeping all his assistants on their toes. Anyways, we couldnt complete the work planned for today . But the quality of the shots that we took more than compensated for the quantity of the shooting that actually happened.
I am more than satisfied actually and my heart is full :) !

PS : It rained heavily in Bangalore today after 4 pm , but thankfully , there was no rain in Marlwadi !
