“Baby,” an unconventional love story involving a fickle-minded girl and her relationship with two boys, has become a talking point since its first shows. With varied opinions and interpretations, it ultimately translated into solid collections, which is what matters.
We had an exclusive and in-depth discussion with director Sai Rajesh about the idea of creating flawed characters and how audiences are interpreting them.
What is even more interesting is that it is an open fact in the industry that when a film is performing well, directors rarely admit any flaws. However, Sai Rajesh stands out by acknowledging his flaws and discussing his openness to improvement in his future projects.
Despite the small film creating big noise and posting good collections, including in the U.S., Director Sai Rajesh openly expresses that he and the heroine Vaishnavi Chaitanya are unable to fully enjoy the success. This is due to certain comments that are affecting them, as a particular ‘key’ sequence and a dialogue in the film are being interpreted in different way by a section of audience.
If you have already watched ‘Baby’, this interview will provide an interesting insight into the director’s perspective, making it an engaging watch. If you haven’t seen the film yet, it will give you a new perspective to watch it through the director’s eyes.
Films like ‘Baby‘ never receive unanimous praise like regular entertainers. However, the fact that such a small film has sparked so much discussion is a testament to its significant success.
