Makhija’s short films examine subjects as varied as misogyny, corruption, land grab and patriarchy. Amongst his features, “Ajji” tackles rape and its aftermath, while “Bhonsle” looks at a host of subjects including loneliness, social justice and the plight of the migrant worker.Manoj Bajpayee
“The survival thriller that ‘Joram’ set out to be hopefully makes the film an engaging enough watch for the viewers to then carry home the disturbing questions we seek to raise,” Makhija added. “I’ve been exploring the complicated conflicts around development in my stories for years now. My first film on this – ‘Oonga’ – didn’t turn out as I wished it would and I turned it into a young adult novel some years ago.
“Dev wanted my character to speak through his eyes, his journey and struggles. You can’t fake your eyes, the life of the character needs to reflect through the eyes. To get that you really have to get into the skin of the character. Whenever he saw that the character is reflected he okayed the take,” Bajpayee said.
Makhija’s brief to Ayyub was that that the film’s perspective is from Ratnakar’s point of view. “To an extent, my personal journey has also been very similar to the character. Earlier you would feel that everything is fine while feeling under-privileged at the same time. But then when you actually witness under-privileged people is when you realize how privileged you have been all along just because you were living in a city,” Ayyub said..
