Do you have a must-do thing that you have to do on the first day of shoot?
I am not a firm believer of superstitions so I do not have a particular thing that I do. But I do need a good night’s sleep before the first day. No one wants to turn up on the first day of shoot of a new project with groggy eyes and yawns.
How’s your mood on Day One of shoot?
Usually I am very calm on the first day. This is because one cannot let panic set in among the team members at the onset of a new shoot. It is like opening the batting in a Test match. A calm start is needed so that the effect of the new ball fades. Then when it stops to swing you start playing your shots.
