Police on Set, Crocodiles & More | Bejoy Nambiar, Shanaya Kapoor & Adarsh Gourav Spill | Tu Yaa Main

Описание: Director Bejoy Nambiar, along with actors Adarsh Gourav and Shanaya Kapoor, sit down with Filmfare to talk about Tu Yaa Main, a survival thriller that throws its leads into a deadly crocodile attack.

Bejoy opens up about paying homage to Khoon Bhari Maang, the film that shaped his idea of a crocodile thriller growing up. He recalls meeting Rakesh Roshan to personally seek permission to use a clip in the trailer, and why it felt important to acknowledge a film so deeply associated with the genre in Indian cinema. From Rakesh Roshan insisting he would buy a ticket to watch the film in theatres to Rekha’s spirited “ekdum jhakaas” message after watching the trailer, the tribute became more personal than expected.

The conversation moves from legacy to on-set madness. Unexpected police visits during a shoot, guerrilla-style filming on a local train, and moments when the crew continued shooting while authorities were being handled outside, it was a crazy time, they say.

Adarsh speaks about the mental challenge of staying in character while exhausted in water for hours, while Bejoy notes that what the audience sees on screen closely mirrors what the actors actually endured.

Bejoy also talks about being drawn to unconventional stories and how Tu Yaa Main, adapted from The Pool, surprised him during narration. He admits he initially walked into the meeting planning to say no, but the world of the story changed his mind. He reveals that Shanaya’s honesty in performance led him to rewrite a key scene to better reflect what she brought to the character, even prompting him to call her father, Sanjay Kapoor, and share how impressed he was.

Adarsh shares how Shanaya’s emotional depth caught him off guard during intense scenes, while Shanaya reflects on playing a social media influencer constantly under scrutiny. She discusses finding similarities and differences with her character, Avani, and how the role helped her understand confidence and trusting her own decisions.
Addressing expectations around her second film, she says she sees it not as pressure, but as something she must earn through hard work.
