NOTE: I would recommend to watch The Eight Column Affair (YouTube) before you proceed to read this interview.
With Rajkumar Hirani as editor, Shiv Subramaniam as the lead and Nana Patekar in a knife-wielding cameo, this short won the National Award for Best Short Fiction Film.
A conversation director Sriram Raghavan about his diploma film, which explores the idea of news “coming alive” when an athlete featured on the front page of a newspaper falls for a model-pretty tennis player featured on the last page. He has to cross through various newspaper headline-hurdles to get to the girl.
‘The Eight Column Affair’ is one of the best illustrations of the race-against-time concept I’ve seen. Because a newspaper literally “expires” at the end of the day and a new edition takes its place. So our hero’s “race against time” becomes literal. I had no idea Shiv Subramaniam had acted in something so long ago. It was fun to see him as the athlete.
The last semester at FTII, we had to do our diploma films. We had to draw a lot, and it turned out I had to shoot first. I had to think of a story and screenplay in a month. I used to sit at the FTII library, reading. I came upon an interview where Wendy Toye - a dancer, stage and film director - spoke about her ambition of doing a stage musical set in a newspaper. I used to dabble in journalism a bit, and that set me off. The front-page photo and the last-page photo wanting to meet, and what happens in between…
What is that Georges Franju quote in the beginning? “It needs only a little imagination for our most habitual actions to become charged with a disquieting significance…”
I’d seen Franju’s movie Eyes Without a Face and loved it. I had read this quote in an interview . I thought it’s a nice, cool thing to put at the beginning of my film, and it also supported the crazy concept of ours. Those days I was just discovering French cinema and was completely enamoured by the French New Wave and all that.
What exactly were the New Wave influences?
I think it’s a ragtag kind of thing. Truffaut, Chabrol, Rohmer and Godard… We were watching the New Wave films 25 years later, but they were still so fresh and liberating in terms of how they used cinema grammar and told stories that didn’t conform to any set Hollywood pattern. While at the Institute, one was influenced by everything one saw. It was a whole lot of conscious and subconscious stuff. There is one sequence wi

In 5 years, he won 102 National and International Awards for his films with 22 International Nominations and what drives him throughout the journey is the impact his films were creating and the responsibility he has in reducing poverty as a citizen of India.
The Documentary Filmmaker
The Documentaries are the best way to create awareness among people about the unknown facts of the society. A documentary film is a nonfictional motion picture which is used to portray the realities involved in the community, education, tribal areas, mysteries and so on. We might have seen several filmmakers, but this guy from Hyderabad do films to help the people of the society, and he is non-other than Anshul Sinha.
In 2011, when he was in college, Anshul used to collect a Rupee from every person in his class every day. He then donated them for some social cause money at the end of every month.One day, when he visited a visually impaired school, Anshul was much concerned about the primary computer facilities for computer science education at the school.
His First Documentary
Anshul then decided to take this issue to the public and made his 1st documentary film on this point in 2012. To his surprise, he got an overwhelming response, and the Lions Club of Hyderabad donated 12 computers for the school. The impact his documentary created gave him the motivation to continue the filmmaking, and he started building an effect on the society with the untold stories of the society.
Anshul Sinha struggle will determine the height of your success
In his second, he interviewed an old man, who was sent to the nursing home by his son. His 4-minute video was able to change the old man’s life who was taken back by his son from the nursing home. Anshul then thought that if he could create such tremendous changes in just one year by making the documentaries, what could be the impact if this initiative was spread to all the colleges of Hyderabad? So, decided to spread the concept and visited around 50 colleges in Hyderabad.

Since the only media coverage of the Indian Film industry is drugs and nepotism, here is a piece of news I hope reaches everyone.
Chaitanya Tamhane, the director of the National Award winning film 'Court' just created history. His latest film, 'The Disciple' became the first Indian film in 30 years, to have won the prestigious FIPRESCI award for the best screenplay at the 2020 Venice Film Festival. This film which has Academy Award winning director Alfonso Cuaron (Roma, Gravity) serving as an executive producer, narrates the saga of Indian Classical music through the life and experience of a professional singer.
I had the opportunity to briefly interact with Chaitanya Tamhane during the 2017 Mumbai Film Festival, where he was present for the screening of Somnath Pal's amazing short film 'Death of a Father' which he produced. Chaitanya was one of the most humble yet brilliantly educated filmmakers I had met who avoids taking credit for his creations. He kept stating how 'Court' was mostly a result of his brilliant cinematographer's work. And yet these are the next generation of directors who actually have the opportunity to change the face of Indian films as we know it, irrespective of whether anyone talks about it or not.
