Why did you make an exception for this one?
Yet, you have never done a remake so far. You are a movie buff and have extensive knowledge of world cinema. We caught up with the filmmaker to talk about his alternate realities. But this is a sci-fi saga that unfolds in multiple timelines. Yes, it is still a dark and dank world with the brooding stillness being broken by a brutal act of violence. His recent release, Dobaaraa, touted as the official remake of the 2018 Spanish film Mirage, is unlike anything the prolific indie auteur has ever attempted. The maker of Gangs of Wasseypur (his seminal work that is part of the Guardian’s 100 Best Films of the 21st Century list) and the co-director and co-producer of the 2019 International Emmy Award-nominated Netflix series Sacred Games, Kashyap is often credited for paving the way for modern new-wave Hindi cinema. His cinema - gritty, realistic, and raw - is mostly a reaction to and reflection of the ruthless and unforgiving contemporary modern world. Even when he creates a romantic drama like Manmarziyaan, he imbues it with enough turbulence. Lorna Tee, curator and founder of mylab, said: “We are delighted and honored to gather so many amazing and vital filmmakers under one program in support of not just new voices and stories but also a more collaborative regional and international film industry.The universe of an Anurag Kashyap film is almost always hostile and noir. Script mentors at mylab include Francoise von Roy (Germany), Samantha Horley (U.K.), Monster Jiminez (Philippines) and Marten Rabarts (New Zealand) while Raymond Phathanavirangoon (Hong Kong/Thailand), Roshanak Behest Nedjad (Germany), Marie Dubas (France), Meiske Taurisia (Indonesia), Bradley Liew (Malaysia/Philippines) and Stefano Centini (Italy/ Taiwan) serve as group leaders. There will also be a case study on He Shuming’s Singapore-Korea co-production “Ajoomma,” produced by Chen, which is in Busan’s New Currents competition and is Singapore’s entry for the Oscars. Highlights of mylab at Busan include sessions on pitching, producing, editing, sound design and funding. Liza Dino, the former chair of FDCP, is serving as an industry mentor to help young producers navigate the film industry. Other partners include Singapore Film Commission, Film Development Council of the Philippines (FDCP), Taiwan Content and Creative Agency and the Korean Film Council. The program is supported by the National Film Development Corporation Malaysia (FINAS).
