Actors were asked to record themselves while he guided them online
VADODARA: When the ‘stay at home’ order was enforced last year, he enjoyed some relaxed moments at his home in the US. But soon creative crisis struck Jay Parikh, a non-resident Gujarati (NRG), and he decided to try something unique. Parikh, who stays in Los Angeles, decided to make three short-films in three different languages, revolving around the theme of Covid-19 pandemic.
Parikh directed these short-films online via Zoom! “Initially I thought of making a short film on how people staying far from each other are dealing with the pandemic and lockdown. But it didn’t look challenging. So, I decided to make three different short films in as many languages,” said Parikh, who is from Vadodara.
