Sugandha Ram, who plays the lead in Santosh Shivan’s ‘Inam‘, which releases Friday, says that the cinematographer-filmmaker follows an organic process of filmmaking.
“The kind of environment Santosh sir provides for his actors is very organically engineered. I know he has a massive body of work where there is a lot of commercial stuff, but when he shoots his own films, the process is very organic,” Sugandha told us.
“In his films, there is not a massive setup. You don’t have to wait for hours for one shot. You are working almost throughout the day and you’re living out the story almost in a linear manner just as it happens in the script. Therefore, it automatically pushes you in places that are very real,” she said.
Sugandha, who enjoys this kind of filmmaking, doesn’t like the trappings of an actor.
“I don’t like sitting in a vanity van. I don’t like applying lot of make-up. I don’t like to have the trappings of an actor because they get in the way of your performance. It also somewhere disconnects you from the people on the sets,” she said.
“For instance, I want to know what my set designer is doing. I like to be involved with my unit because it gives you the feeling that you are doing something together and not in isolation of each other. All this makes it very real, organic and I enjoy being part of it,” Sugandha added. Read More On MSN
