2023:  Directors To Look Forward To

2022 had its fair share  of  debutant directors, like Abhishek  Pathak who  directed Drishyam 2, one  of  the most successful films of  the year,and Tushar Jalota  whose Dasvi  got a substantial amount of praise on the  digital platform. Jasmeet K Reen  was a remarkable  directorial discovery . Her Darlings  was one of the OTT’s most successful feature films on Netflix.

This year begins with Aasmaan Bhardwaj  KutteySon of  Vishal Bhardwaj, Aasmaan seems to have inherited his father’s style of dark  crime-infested  filmmaking. As  Gulzar who has mentored both father and son Bhardwaj would say, ‘Tum aa  gaye ho noire aa gaya hai.’

Shantanu Bagchi makes an impressive directorial debut in Mission Majnu a  taut tensile espionage  tale  which  makes its  debut on  Netflix in January and  is expected to rescue Siddharth Malhotra’s  ailing career from the doldrums.

Randeep Hooda turns director with Swatantra Veera Sawarkar, the historical bio-pic also has Hooda playing the  lead  role.
