Tigmanshu Dhulia Explains Why Ghamasaan Leads Never Shot Together
Ghamasaan is a film based on true events.
It follows Maharaj, a feared dacoit leader, and Aditya, a Special Task Force officer.
Aditya is trying to find Maharaj.
The two actors playing these characters, Arshad Warsi and Pratik Gandhi, never filmed together.
The director said this made sense because the characters do not really meet face-to-face.
Their conflict is shown through their separate actions and the results of those actions.
Dhulia said Warsi played Maharaj as both ruthless and controlled.
He also said both characters clearly understand their goals, which makes the story tense.
Arshad Warsi and Pratik Gandhi did not shoot a single day together for Ghamasaan.
