Cinematographer Mridul Sen on 'Subham' Film's Unique Visuals

The movie 'Subham' is a horror-comedy, and the cinematographer, Mridul Sen, wanted the visuals to look real, like a documentary.

She used a style called cinéma vérité, which means filming things as they are.

The story happens in a seaside town in the early 2000s, before smartphones were common.

The cinematographer worked with the costume and set designers to keep the colors simple and not too flashy.

Sen's goal was to capture the story and characters authentically.

She is also awaiting the release of another film, Paradha, which uses a different visual approach.
