Firangi: Kapil Sharma has THIS to say about his production

Comedian-turned-actor Kapil Sharma is pretty excited about his upcoming production ‘Firangi’ which stars Ishita Dutta and Monica Gill as well. Kapil, who is the lead actor in the movie and also the producer spoke about producing ‘Firangi’. He was asked if it is difficult to strike the perfect balance between acting and production, he replied, “I think I am not business-minded as a producer, which I was supposed to be, to make a film in a tight budget. For instance, in the film, which we shot in Punjab, we waited for the real winter to come so that we can capture the beauty of Punjab in winter — how people look nice in a village wedding wearing shawls and how larger than life our big fat Punjabi wedding looks like. In fact, we shot in real fog, at a beautiful location in Ropar, from where Satluj river passes.”

He added, “Focusing on this elaboration of beauty, what we didn’t realise that in winter, the day is shorter, and therefore the shooting schedule got extended than usual. Therefore, the budget also extended. So I realized that I am someone who enjoys storytelling, creativity and entertainment, but I am not so great with finance management.” (Also Read: EXCLUSIVE: Kapil Sharma is a man who is very passionate about his work, says Monica Gill)
