Aamir experiment challenges Rajeev

Right from the beginning, director Rajkumar Gupta has been in the news for his experimental style of filmmaking in Aamir. Gupta has been pushing debutante Rajeev Khandelwal to his limits as an actor.
First of all, it is no hero, no songs project. And in a newest revelation, Gupta has shot Rajeev with the camera hidden in most of the situations. There were cameras hidden away from the view and the actor was supposed to express himself according to the instructions given to him by the director over the phone.

There were times when Rajeev didn't even know where the camera was placed and where he was supposed to face. Major portions of the film were shot via instructions on the phone. He was told when to run and scream, etc. Apparently, all this was done deliberately so as to give the scenes an authentic look, says Gupta. "We shot major scenes with instructions on the phone. It sounds easy when you think of it, but believe me its not. We discussed the scene before our takes but while canning the shot, I used to change my ideas and instruct Rajeev to do something that was apparently not discussed. He never disappointed and came out with some excellent shots." Well new and innovative thrills are definitely going to be a delight to watch.
