Quotes
Ankit
Creator of a devotional film
“When we finished the film, we did feel that Krishna... means celebration. Krishna is about joy, utsav, dancing, living. So the film needed that feeling somewhere. That's why, even before finishing the cut, we recorded the last song and placed it in. Then we shot it. Even the promotional song — Krishna felt like celebration. But honestly, all this became part of the film later. Initially we didn't think it would explode like this.”
