Actor Angad Bedi and his co-star Kirti Kulhari have talked about the challenges they faced to emote for their short film 'The List' whilst projecting blank faces to bring out the narrative.
'The List' is a journey of 'He' and 'She' who are living a robotic life that is a reflection to the typical metropolitan life we are living today. From daily household chores, to office tasks, to traffic jams, all of these are symbolic of how all humans today are stuck in a certain structure of 'Matrix'.
Kirti said: "This was a different experience, there were moments where Gaurav Dave (the director) would tell us 'thoda aur dead dikho, thoda aur emotion kam karo, abhi bhi kuch lag raha hai, ussko bhi hata do.' So we were going in the opposite direction."
This challenge was really something that I enjoyed because it was different from the usual 'yeh emotion chahiye, woh emotion chahiye.' In my own head, I kept pushing and trying to get it right because it matters to me. Baaki toh kaafi majja aaya yaar, kuch dialogues nahi hai, bas chehre se emote karna hai.. It was a great change," she added.
