Kho Gaye Hum Kahan, a film about navigating life, work and relationships in the age of social media is out on OTT. Arjun Varain Singh makes his directorial debut with the film starring Ananya Panday, Siddhant Chaturvedi and Adarsh Gourav. In an exclusive interview with Filmfare, the director opened up about the film’s making.
When asked about his experience working with Ananya Panday, Arjun revealed that the actress is prep-oriented. He says, “She just works so hard. She is a hard worker and she put a lot of time in prep. It’s shocking how incredible her memory is. She actually is very intelligent. You say something to Ananya and six months later, she’ll remember it. It’s crazy.”
He adds, “She has a curiosity for every little detail about the script and her character’s motivation, the meaning behind the scene, she wants to know it all. She is very involved and we’ve done entire readings together scene-by-scene. We must’ve done that process alone three times.”
The film sees Ananya Panday play Ahana Singh, a corporate consultant whose sudden break-up leaves her heartbroken, sending her down a social media rabbit hole that only makes matters worse.
Kho Gaye Hum Kahan is written by Arjun, Zoya Akhtar, Reema Kagti and Yash Sahai. The film is produced by Zoya, Reema, Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhwani. The film is currently streaming.
