It is a film about heartbreak as much as it is about finding. Chungking Express will always have a tender place in my heart due to the nature of the sequential stories.
#CHUNGKING EXPRESS TRAILER MOVIE#
There was a running joke on set where I used to call Dhanush ‘thalaiva’ and I used to call Akshay sir ‘thalaiva of the north’. The second Movie of the Week was Chungking Express, Wong Kar-wai’s 1994 Hong Kong romantic drama feature focusing on two policemen after their lovers have left. Dhanush is an institution, a National Award-winning actor. I am so privileged to have had the opportunity to work with him.
Sara had earlier spoken to about working with Akshay and Dhanush in Atrangi Re, “Akshay sir is one of the biggest stars in our country today, even then he is such a humble and fun loving person who gets such joyful energy on set. I would’ve loved to have the film play on a bigger screen, but the deal was done, and we cannot backtrack on it. I want people to watch the film for two hours, and react to it thereafter,” he said, adding that the decision to opt for OTT release came because his idea was to “reach maximum people.
If a filmmaker shows patience in making a film, it’s his small expectation that people wait and understand the reason behind such a cast. Rai emphasised that the audience just needs to be patient. Since the time the film’s cast was announced, it has been criticised from all quarters due to the age difference between Sara (26), and the two male actors Akshay (54) and Dhanush (38). Recently, in an interview with Mid-Day, director Aanand L Rai opened up on the age-gap between the cast. While Sara plays Rinku, Dhanush will be seen as Vishu. The motion posters were shared by the actor on social media, giving a glimpse into the colourful world of the three characters. Earlier, Akshay gave audience the first looks at the characters of Sara Ali Khan, Dhanush and himself from the upcoming film.
