Sikandars website goes beyond just the making of the film

What would you do if your child found a gun? No idea,right? Thats the reason we went beyond the making of the film and dealt with questions the film poses, tells Piyush Jha,director of the film Sikandar at the launch of its website,www.sikandar.bigflix.com. Written and directed by Jha and produced by BIG Pictures along with Sudhir Mishra,the microsite,www.sikandar.bigflix.com,includes all that one would want to know about the movie including the regular like trailers,synopsis,videos,gallery,downloads,music et al. But our USP is Making of Sikandar and the Vox Pop video, informs Jha. While the making has Jha,the BIG Pictures spokesperson,Mahesh Ramnathan and Mishra sharing the idea,inspiration behind making of the film,unique experiences and challenges during the journey of the shoot of the film,its the Vox Pop,thats got us writing. Its a special video that includes the responses of various common people when they are asked a simple question: What would you do if your child found a gun? This is the central question asked in the story and we will talk about it aggressively through various online platforms to create the buzz and build the curiosity about the movie, says Jha,a strong votary of promoting films through the digital medium. Adds Murtuza Kagalwala,Business Head,BIGFlix.com,We have created the microsite keeping in mind the location and the story line of the film,and we expect more hits especially on the Vox Pop. Sikandar is a suspense thriller about an adolescent whose life changes drastically when he comes across a gun. It stars Parzaan Dastur,Ayesha Kapoor,R Madhavan,Sanjay Suri,and Arunoday Singh,and is all set to hit the screens soon. Till then,log on and answer the question.
