00:00So welcome team toaster to the team of two INS. It is an absolute pleasure to have you with us
00:05support today.
00:06So firstly in Dallas I saw the trailer. It looks very intriguing. It's a bit different now.
00:12And all the content in the market is a bit like you will see it.
00:16And this is from the audience perspective. Thank you. The film is way better than the trailer.
00:21So please watch it. Sure.
00:22So I just want to know that firstly talking to you three
00:29If you could tell us more about your characters. And also basically tell us about your characters.
00:36I am very simple. Ramakant. I am a very sweet man.
00:40Who is paying so much money in life.
00:44You can save it and you can always work.
00:47But I know that people also say it.
00:50It is very practical.
00:52Yeah it is very practical.
00:55That's why I don't want to do a child too.
00:58Right, right. But what about your character?
01:02Shilpa is a Judo player.
01:05Black belt in Judo.
01:06Black belt in Judo.
01:07And he is waiting for his job.
01:11So he is waiting for his job.
01:13Crime shows.
01:14Crime shows.
01:15Crime shows.
01:15Crime shows.
01:16Crime shows.
01:19The父's muerte.
01:24No!
01:26No!
01:30No!
01:33Do you do not do that.
01:35No!
01:35No!
01:35No!
01:35No!
01:36No!
01:42No!
01:43No!
01:45No!
01:46can be irritatingly sweet but because of his conjuciat
01:52but no, I have Raj level of conjuciating
01:55Right and would you vouch on the same?
01:57100% Raj is not conjuciating
01:59I am not conjuciating
02:02Sivath and Ramakhan in real life
02:04Not that level
02:06Thankfully
02:07Yeah
02:08In the film they didn't do any conjuciating
02:16Yeah
02:17So sir, if I had to ask you that Jabi's story
02:19Sir
02:20Sir
02:23Jabi's story Akiva Sai
02:24So what made you select them and
02:28They selected me, I didn't select them
02:30It's the opposite
02:31Raj and Patra, they came to me with a one pager
02:35So I said, are you guys sure you are?
02:38I will put it off and they had showed that immense faith in me
02:42He's been working in ad for a very long time
02:45He's been in ad
02:46If you go out and speak VDC
02:47If you go out and speak VDC
02:48In the ad world, you will all go out
02:49No
02:50No, you can hear it
02:51You can hear it
02:52But yeah, so I was very very fortunate
02:54That they got this script to me
02:57And it was a lovely lovely script to do a debut with
03:01And I
03:03And these set of actors
03:04And these set of actors
03:05I was like these
03:07This Sanya, Raj
03:08And the late ensemble we have
03:10The other characters in our film
03:12That made my work very very very simple
03:14So actually I had to
03:16I could concentrate on a lot of other important stuff
03:18Not just
03:19The acting is not even in the question
03:24They are all great talent
03:25So I am very excited for the 15th
03:27Absolutely
03:28But you know
03:29When you say that
03:30I personally think that
03:32If there are easy actors
03:33So it may be easy to direct
03:35But when actors know their job very well
03:37So what does the perspective of the director
03:40When they are
03:40I mean like
03:41See
03:45I mean like
03:45You need to have date actors
03:47That is non-negotiable
03:48You know
03:49And
03:50An actor and a director
03:51Actually need to come on to the same page
03:52And I am watching this
03:53I am like
03:55This is the character
03:55This is the scene I feel like
03:57And if
03:58We are in agreement
03:58Then I think it's great
03:59And whatever the actor gets
04:01Into the table
04:02It
04:03Just elevates the scene or the film anyway
04:05And both
04:06And all the other actors have done the same
04:07So
04:08You will exactly resonate with what I am saying
04:11Absolutely
04:12Patrick
04:12Discussions for you
04:14That
04:14I think
04:14In the past six, seven, nine, nine
04:16In your debut was
04:17As a mother
04:19As a producer
04:20I am very grateful
04:20So firstly
04:21I wanted to know
04:21That
04:21What made you choose
04:23Get Steppin' with the choose of a producer
04:25Also why did this picture happen?
04:28I wanted to become a producer much much earlier
04:32I
04:32We were
04:33Both I and Raj
04:35Since 2017
04:36We were actively thinking of opening up a production house
04:39And then the pandemic happened
04:41And then we got Haji Rata Lais
04:43and then the story actually came to Raj and Raj really connected with the story and then
04:49he was like you know read this up and what do you think of it and when I read it
04:56it was
04:56funny it was something that I thought is not so serious it's it's fun it's a comedy which
05:03I figured comedy is way way more difficult a genre to make because this book was really
05:11funny but that's not necessarily importantly that it's going to translate into a movie
05:19but I'm glad we chose this because the most difficult thing is to make a person laugh and
05:26I hopefully toaster is going to do that but yes becoming a producer it's great and it's
05:34a difficult job but my most important thing that's happened to me in my life is becoming
05:41a mother and it's the most fulfilling experience and I'm just so blessed that because I was
05:49always contemplating oh maybe I don't want to become a maybe you know it but just having
05:55her around it's just I think I am my best boyfriend right now.
06:01You know we have seen a lot of actors actresses especially when they choose motherhood right
06:06they kind of take a sabbatical from you all but with you it's the other way around.
06:09It's the other way around.
06:10Right.
06:10But I'm also really happy because there is something called postpartum that happens to
06:15women not everyone necessarily and also because motherhood is a black girl and I feel like because
06:24of toaster and of that and I'm glad that the universe supported me this way I didn't feel
06:31it so much and I feel like I'm a better mother to Parvati so thankfully it's a good space.
06:39That's so beautiful.
06:41Raj, this question is for you that you know we've seen, we have seen Patran Ikha from and
06:48you've witnessed as well from an actor to girlfriend's face to wife to mother to now producer.
06:55Is this the toughest time concert like how tough is she to track in which department and how
07:02is the journey been in your works?
07:04No, it's been beautiful.
07:05I think it's been fantastic.
07:07Whatever work she has done, there have been so many moments in her performances that I
07:14feel, I've watched some time that I get so inspired.
07:18Like I tell her time and again that her moment in I see it when poor and that scene where
07:22it tells that there is that you know can you, can I call my, can you call my father.
07:26I think I don't know how she did that, how she did that.
07:28In City Light there are so many moments and in Phule there are so many moments.
07:32I think I've seen her journey of course and likewise she has seen my journey.
07:37But for me the transition of you know Patran Ikha, the brave, you know independent, beautiful
07:44Patran Ikha, that this when I saw her as a mother, how she became this very sensitive,
07:52timid, fragile girl that I saw when I first met her.
07:57You know it was beautiful to see that because motherhood makes you do that.
08:02You don't, you don't care about anything else in the world but that baby.
08:07That's why I think others are so special you know for all of us.
08:12So and I'm seeing her everyday now and it's beautiful seeing her transitioning between her work as a producer, as
08:20an actor and then also to be available for Parvati.
08:24It's way more tougher for women.
08:29Physically and then emotionally also way more tougher but of course for men also it's tougher emotionally.
08:35Not physically that much but women go through a lot.
08:40Sure.
08:41Also they said that when there is a girl child in the house there is a lot of luck that
08:44comes
08:44along with her.
08:45Right?
08:45How has it been in your case?
08:47I mean after her I remember you won Shrikant awards for Shrikant and that.
08:50Yeah of course the day she was gone Patra won for Kule best actress.
08:55So like 14 November it's right?
08:5715 November.
08:5715 November.
08:58Yeah.
08:59Okay.
09:00When she's brought in I'm sure she's going to begin.
09:03Yeah but there's no pressure.
09:04Yeah.
09:05Nothing to do with her.
09:06It's quality control.
09:07Yeah.
09:07It's our luck.
09:09It's our destiny.
09:10Our hard work.
09:11Yeah.
09:11She's her baby.
09:12She's her daughter.
09:13She has her own journey.
09:14Yeah.
09:14She has her own journey.
09:15Yeah.
09:16So I think this question is for you that when you look at your area of works that you have
09:21done, you see that your selected projects are very relevant and not just haywire.
09:27Right?
09:27When you talk about toaster, what is that particular element that made you take up the project and
09:32what goes in your mind when you're selecting such selected projects?
09:39I did toaster because it's very fun script.
09:44And as an actor I was also looking for something where I just wanted to have fun and of course
09:52I wanted, I really wanted to work with Raj.
09:54I have done two films with him.
09:55Yeah.
09:57I have done Ludo, which I have not seen with him and then we did Hit.
10:01Which was also, you know, it was not, for me it was not a very blendy path.
10:08But when he called me for toaster and he told me that they are making it, I, it was an
10:14instant
10:14yes for me.
10:15I knew that if they are attached to something then it has to be good.
10:20And I love watching films like toaster as an audience and I wanted to do a film like toaster as
10:27an actor.
10:28Just me comedy ho, just me, of course when Raj is there I know, I know if they are producing
10:34it,
10:35if they will get really good actors together.
10:40So, these were the things that were going in my head when I was offered.
10:44Right.
10:44And how was your experience working with Patrilik as a producer?
10:47You know, she is an incredible producer.
10:50Why?
10:51Because she is also an incredible actor.
10:54When we were trying to find Shilpa, she was really helpful.
11:00Like, there were times when I didn't know what I wanted for her in terms of look.
11:05She really helped me, ki baal asi muna chahi hai.
11:08The saree I have going for a scene.
11:12It was her idea, the colour, the shape.
11:15And I am so glad that I had her because there are times when you are trying to figure out
11:20a character or apko lagta hai ki what the look should be.
11:23Because she is such an incredible actor.
11:25She is really helpful in that place.
11:27Right.
11:27And how was it for both of you, how was it to reunite after such a long time?
11:32It was fun.
11:33I think because I have been seeing her journey, I have seen her work and she is phenomenal in whatever
11:36she does.
11:37And when you have good actors on screen who are also, you know, who are also friends.
11:42And I like her because she, she laughs on my stupid jokes.
11:46Yeah.
11:47It I shouldn't.
11:48It I shouldn't.
11:49It I shouldn't.
11:50We have a great audience.
11:51She is a great audience.
11:52She is a great audience.
11:53She is a great audience.
11:55So I think when somebody is immensely talented then it makes your job so easy.
12:00Especially comedy, you need that timing.
12:02Yeah.
12:02And I told this in an interview before that, you know, when people will see her in Toaster, they would
12:08be so impressed with her comic timing.
12:10Because very, very few actors both male and female together have that kind of comic timing.
12:16Yeah.
12:17Right.
12:17Also, when you read the script, Sanya's character is written a certain way.
12:23But the way she's translated the whole character when you watch the film, you know, is really refreshing.
12:33Not many, men, women, both, I'm not going to say that.
12:40It's, it's really difficult to make people laugh.
12:44Yeah.
12:45You know.
12:45And they're not playing to a gallery, you know, it's very situational and that was very refreshing to even watch
13:00it while we were shooting.
13:01Yeah.
13:02Yeah.
13:03Yeah.
13:03Absolutely.
13:04I mean, it's reflected in the trailer.
13:05I'm sure the movie will do it.
13:07So, Sanya, this question is for you that when you've done such phenomenal work, right?
13:11Do you get affected by random stories that are there outside regarding you?
13:16How do you take it?
13:16How do you go?
13:17Yeah.
13:17So the last question for all of you that if you had to give one particular reason why everybody should
13:22watch your movie?
13:23And why does it make, why is Toaster very stand out from others?
13:27What would that be?
13:29It's a comedy.
13:31And if all of us would love to laugh while you're watching something.
13:35So I think just to be free from all the stress around the world and in your life for two
13:40hours, just watch Toaster because it's got some really wonderful actors,
13:45Vivek's beautiful debut, Patra's beautiful debut as a producer.
13:48And just laugh out loud.
13:49I think it's a fun thing.
13:50I think it's a crazy ride due to what's opening up.
13:52We want to spend some good time with the film.
13:53And trust me, we haven't seen anything in the trailer.
13:56Yeah.
13:56There's so much more apps in the trailer.
13:58Yeah.
13:59Yeah.
13:59Just Iqnam Sazal, why do you choose an OTT platform for it and why not theater?
14:04Is there any specific reason for it?
14:06I think some stories are meant for.
14:09Meant for.
14:10You know, yeah.
14:11Yeah.
14:11So there's no specific reason.
14:13No, there's no specific reason.
14:14Yeah, it's not that we wanted to do theater when we were doing it.
14:17It was always a cancel on decision.
14:19Day go, yeah.
14:20Day one.
14:20Yeah.
14:21I think it was pretty much sorted.
14:23Thank you so much for your time.
14:24Thank you so much.
14:24Thank you so much.
14:24Thank you so much for watching.
14:25Bye.
14:25Bye.
