Jhing Chik Jhing – Day 23

Tue, 02 Dec 2008 09:51:15 +0000

More filming with the children. A warm winters’ day in Dhule, the unit continued the shoot in the outdoors near the city. Everyone is aware that it is a long day, it will end 48 hours from now when the long shoot schedule packs up.
We began by shooting with Aarti More – who plays Dipti

And then going home – Dipti, Shyam and Raja – who is Raja you may ask – watch the film

Jhing Chik Jhing – Day 22

Mon, 01 Dec 2008 09:48:57 +0000

There were a lot of outdoor – as opposed to set up – shoots to do. Mostly with the children.

Aarti and Chinmay were the focus of a lot of the shoot today, as Nitin explored the dynamic between brother & sister

Day 21 saw us shooting a lot of scenes with Dilipji and Chinmay. The day started with a bit of confusion. Dilipji arrived, but his costume & property (glasses) didn’t. The assistants & the dressman scampered to find it.

Srikanth, Tejas, Bharat Dhake, Tanmay,

Nitin used to the down time to brief Dilipji and Chinmay and get their timing correct.

And then Dilipji & Chinmay practiced on their own. Their chemistry between them is obvious even in a still photograph.

And, the scene :

The shooting began for the film’s climax. The hustle and buslte and the fact that the schedule was almost at a close could be felt in the air

The Crew

A quiet moment for the family – Bharat Jadhav (Mouli), Madhavi Juvekar (Manda), Chinmay Kambli (Shyam) and Aarti More (Dipti)

Shooting with Dilip Prabhavalkar is a different trip. He is every one’s favourite uncle. And, he has a fabulous sense of humour. This was shot during makeup :

The Karela Face Pack

And, he is a consummate professional.

The Master at Work

On this day we had a lot of scenes to can. The lighting team worked at breakneck speed to get things organised

Up Above the Sky So High

Bharat Jadhav & Dilip Prabavalkar got on like a house on fire, having worked in plays earlier. It is one of the rare times that such stalwarts of Marathi cinemna are together, sharing a frame and a film.

Lunch was a blast. Madhavi Juvekar, Bharat Jadhav and Dilip Prabhavalkar

Jhing Chik Jhing – Day 6

Getting the Trolley Shot Ready

Aah, the joys of shooting outdoors. The wonderful thing is that the moment a camera comes out, so do faces peering into it. and, people love to stand and watch the goings on. Which is great fun, in the sense of the city or town participating in your film, but a pain in terms of shooting.

Srikanth – one of the AD’s on a shoot created a diversion. He moved 180 degrees away from the shoot area with a small crew and a video camera. Stood on a stool and entertained the crowds. Soon the crowds were roaring away – a good distance away from where the unit was filming. And, the unit managed to take its shot !

Filming with Sanjay Mone is great film. One of the finest performers in Marathi Theatre, TV and film – he has a fine light touch that works just as well off camera.

These scenes were shot at the school where Sanjay plays the teacher

Sanjay Mone goes for a Take

Working with children is always a different trip – coz children ask the darndest questions. here is Nitin trying to answer some of them

Director Uncle tell Me....

And, of course the lighting. Getting things just right
