“Aasmaan Bhardwaj Has Gone A Little Further Than  His Dad,”  Says Naseeruddin Shah

Like  Amitabh Bachchan who had the singular achievement of  working with both  father Manmohan Desai and son Ketan Desai, Naseeruddin  Shah has  worked with Vishal Bhardwaj in Maqbool and  7 Khoon Maaf, and now with  Vishal’s  son Aasmaan in his debut film Kuttey.

When asked  to shed some light  on his role Naseer says, “My role in Kuttey is a surprise.”

Asked to compare  father and son Bhardwaj, Naseer  observes, “I think Aasmaan has gone a little further than his Dad in their chosen genre. Father and son Bhardwaj are both night birds! They prefer night shoots which I hate .But I am personally very fond of them, and they are both very well prepared and make their actors comfortable.”

Naseer looks back at the  past year  with some  joy.  “The past year has been good. I did the series Taj. Then  I did  Vishal’s short film and a couple of others. Just finished my work in Baba Azmi ‘s film   Salman and daughter  .We  shot  it in Lucknow.”
