A theatre enthusiast, Rahul Chaudhari entered the regional film industry as a director and is now ready with his second Marathi film. A story of a young student, who moves to the city from a village makes the plot of Rahul Chaudhari\u2019s latest film, Iblis. His journey of intrigue, fighting the system and unravelling new truths begins when he is enrolled into a posh school. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The main cast includes new faces and Chaudhari \nfocused on picking actors that suited the role over big names. \u201cThe film\n demanded fresh faces. I am primarily a theatre person, so for me, the \nface or name of an actor doesn\u2019t matter. What really matters is whether \nhe or she fits the part. Also, most importantly, he or she must do \njustice to the role,\u201d says the director.He adds that the protagonist of \nthe film is set on a journey to reach Shivneri Fort with a group of \nfriends. \u201cWhy he is on this journey? Or does he make it? Are questions \nwhich will be answered in the film. We have shot in Nashik, Mumbai-Pune \noutskirts and the road towards Shivneri,\u201d he adds.
Chhatrapati \nShivaji Maharaj has an integral part in the story line. However, \nChaudhari insists that it is not a glorified film on his journey or \nvictories. \u201cI have told a simple story from which I hope people learn \nmore about Maharaj\u2019s thought process and vision. The idea is to tell the\n young generation of his good work through a story and not through war \nsequences or grand sets,\u201d he says.
His first film focused on \ncertain unrealistic and unbelievable rituals in our society. And, Iblis,\n too, has a subtle social message. \u201cI am not here for the name or fame. I\n am here to make good films and put out good content. I tend to spend a \ngood year and a half on the research of my films. Having said that, they\n do have entertainment quotients in them too,\u201d he shares.
This \nyear, Chaudhari is venturing into the Hindi film industry, too. He will \nbe making his debut Hindi directorial with a film that goes on floors in\n a couple of months. \u201cThe story, cast and technical aspects are locked.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
