Mumbai, Aug 31 : Director Danish Renzu, who has helmed the recently released streaming movie ‘Song of Paradise’, has spoken up on how the series was mounted. The film is a period drama, and is inspired by the life of Padma Shri awardee, Raj Begum.
The lead character is portrayed by Saba Azad and Soni Razdan across two time periods. The film offers a peek into the life of the Padma Shri awardee. The director recently spoke with IANS, during the promotional campaign of the film. When he was asked about how he managed to get the production design right on point, he said, “Actually, the entire film has been shot at real locations, real houses, real old buildings including silk factories and Amar Singh college. They still look very old, nothing modern has been done on them”. The director further mentioned that given the architecture in Kashmir has been preserved well, the team didn’t have to do much as the structures were already there. He told IANS, “Kashmir already has that vibe, even downtown where we shot, that is also so raw and real, there’s not much, no man-made stuff done yet.
