Seasoned filmmaker Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, who is known for helming films like Nil Battey Sannata, Panga and Bareilly Ki Barfi, has always told stories keeping her female characters in focus without being preachy. Faadu – A Love Story is her maiden digital release. It stars Pavail Gulati and Saiyami Kher. In an exclusive chat with The Free Press Journal, Ashwiny talks about her latest venture.
Packed with emotional tropes, the focus of the series is more on the rag-to-riches narrative. It takes us through the rise of Abhay from a Mr Nobody to a Mr Somebody, and how he works his way to make it big, forms the bulk of the tale.
