Love,Actually

“You have to watch the film for that,” he says,smiling. All he is willing to divulge is that the movie is set in modern-day Mumbai,and it weaves together the lives of three couples who connect with each other through a series of touching and hilarious moments,sometimes just over a simple cup of coffee. “The film explores love at different ages,” says the actor-turned-director. “It was a heart racing moment when I saw my wife for the first time,and it was a whole new overwhelming emotion when I held my daughter in my arms for the first time. That’s when I realised,love can happen anytime,anywhere,” he says.

With Nana Patekar,Dimple Kapadia,Anjana Sukhani,Vidya Malvade,Suniel Shetty and Rehan Khan starring in the movie,Sadanand has managed to put an impressive cast together. “The failure of my first film,Popcorn Khao Mast Ho Jao,taught me how to approach a film. It taught me important lessons like making crisp edit cuts,focusing on the script,picking the right actors and being convinced about the product.” Sadanand says he has given it his best shot,going over as many as 16 drafts of the script,before he settled for the best of the lot. “Filmmaking is not a right,it’s a privilege and I misused it the first time. I can’t take it for granted now,” he says.
