Tadap not an oversmart adaptation Milan Luthria

18-Nov-2021
Mumbai Nov 18 PTI Filmmaker Milan Luthria says his upcoming film Tadap retains the core of the original Telugu romantic action drama RX 100 and the changes were made without trying to fix anything from the source materialThe film marks the Bollywood debut of actor Suniel Shettys son Ahan Shetty and also stars Tara SutariaLuthria says he had connected with the intensity of the 2018 Telugu film featuring Kartikeya Gummakonda and Payal Rajput and decided to adapt itThere is no point in buying a film and then changing it for the heck of it We made certain changes for the pan India audience in terms of costumes locations few scenes--removed some added some--but the core remained intact Once we were done with the screenplay and dialogues it looked like a nice good adaptation not trying to be oversmart with it the filmmaker told PTITadap has been written by his frequent collaborator writer Rajat Arora who had also penned the makers Once Upon a Time in Mumbai The Dirty Picture and Baadshaho while RX 100 one of the biggest hits of the year was written and directed by Ajay Bhupathi with dialogues credited to SyedThe director said though there can be changes in a story from the original work it should not be counter productive We were clear that there was no point in changing it too much Why fix something if it is not broken You are buying something the film because you like it why should your ego come in the way You should not think Why should I do it the way he did it It is counter productive You have to respect the filmmaker he added With Tadap the filmmaker said the teams aim is to make the viewers witness a mad raging romance Luthria came on board when het got a call from producer Sajid Nadiadwala asking him if he would be interested in helming a film starring Ahan The director had seen the 25-year-olds pictures and met him for a screen test The team however did not have a script in hand and was scouting for stories which led them to RX 100 We were looking for a script watched a couple of South Films and finally chanced upon RX 100 It just felt fantastic and right It was up my street It is an unexpected film for a debut It is dramatic intense and unconventional With changing times you need that much ammunition to put out something which can take on the box office Thats when we decided to go for it he said Luthria was pleasantly surprised with Ahan as the debutant delivered the intensity that was required for the film about coming together and the eventual separation of two lovers I was surprised with his ability to cope with this kind of material He is a gifted actor Every time I threw a challenge at him he would meet it head on We worked hard on action drama and emotions He is also extremely observant There is a great mix of strong presence and a certain kind of endearing softness He is different from Suniel He is his own person I didnt ever get a feeling of dejavu that I am watching a young Suniel You will see in the film that he has got his own aura The film scheduled to theatrically release on December 3 is billed as a big scale Bollywood entertainerWith streaming platforms making a big splash in the Indian market with their diverse range of movies and series many have argued that the true blue commercial potboilers might face resistance as the audiences taste has evolved especially in the last one yearBut the director said even though the OTT platforms are witnessing fascinating work there is a vacuum for the audience craving for massy films Rise of OTT is evolution it was bound to happen There is a lot more production happening out there they are writing directing and performing differently so one has to keep pace and cant be left behindAt the same time the mass sensibility of the Indian audience is not reflected in OTT content completely We have family audiences theatre going audiences who like a little less edgy content that cuts across a wider group So while appreciating everything that is happening on OTT platforms one also has to think about a mass Indian entertainers he added PTI JUR BK BK
