It’s been a busy few weeks for Raj Amit Kumar. While his series Bindiya Ke Bahubali 2 has dropped on Amazon MX Player, the director is now focusing his energies on releasing his feature film, Brown. It isn’t lost on him that his drama is particularly relevant in today’s times. “It’s a story of a brown immigrant chased by ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] agents in America. It’s a hot subject considering what we are seeing in the US. We are figuring out its distribution,” he said.
Kumar is also pleased with the response to the second season of his ensemble comedy, which stars Saurabh Shukla, Viineet Kumar Siingh, and more. He revealed that the series was shot in one go, but released in two parts. While a project with a huge cast can be tricky for a director, who has to manage insecurities of actors, Kumar faced no such problem. “I have written characters and actors have agreed to play them, so there is complete clarity. Why should there be any demand beyond that?”
