This is so insightful for film fans like me. No nonsense approach, no unnecessary interjections and so many anecdotes. Keep going FC
I was not aware of Vanita and her extremely precise style. Thank you Film Companion. Vanita has earned one more fan, many more to go.
Appreciate that the interview focused more on the business aspect of movies. Its rare to come across such insights. I hope you interview more producers and from non-Hindi industries as well.
We're on it! Stay tuned to Beyond The Box Office
Movies like Badshah n Chandni chowk to China are not great cinema, but just fun for nostalgia... and for 90s kids. Neither would work today because of scrutiny
The interviewer is perfect. Precisely worded questions, no interruptions. Superb work.
Loved this interview! Please do more of this
Thank you FC for such an insightful interview and what a great guest to have! My special thanks to the interviewer, she’s so professional, knows her questions well, backed by data/figures. What a breath of fresh air, merci 💛
Outstanding interview! Was fun and enlightening to know many a behind the scene stories. Very happy to see a well prepared & researched film journalist in Vanita Kohli Khandekar. Looking forward to many such episodes on FC. Though I wished the following questions could have also been asked :
1. Nikhil Advani's experience on working on & directing the national award winning animation film DELHI SAFARI where voiceovers were given by popular actors like Suniel Shetty, Urmila Matondkar, Govinda, Akshaye Khanna & Boman Irani. Why has he not directed or produced an animation film after that?
2.His experience on working on & directing HERO which was a launchpad for Sooraj Pancholi and Athiya Shetty, produced by Salman Khan. What are his learnings from its failure?
Constructive Feedback to Team FC:
1.Please do not ask the interviewer to stop the interview abruptly. Podcasts can be of more than 1 hour also
2.Vanita is a gem, never leave her😊
Finally, would like to thank the entire FC and FC South teams for always striving to bring quality content. As a long time subscriber, I have always been entertained 👍
