00:00Nitru Ji, first of all, welcome to INES.
00:02And, Nitru Ji, first of all, you need to know that after a long time, you are doing a lot
00:06of Indian film.
00:08Yes.
00:09And the last question is how to come back from the intensive and politically layered film.
00:16Is it a conscious decision that you will return with strong thought provisioning scripts?
00:22Look, every actor finds good scripts.
00:24For me, I don't have a limitation of good scripts without any good scripts.
00:34You will know that I have worked in South, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and now I have released a film of
00:44Hollywood.
00:45So, all of these things, you know, have a lot of time to reach them.
00:53And good Hindi films can also reach you.
00:57And, you know, sometimes you say that it's difficult to reach the fire in the fire.
01:05When this role came, this is the role of the editor-in-chief.
01:10And I am very happy to know that any other film that you will see,
01:15I don't see any of my roles.
01:19So, I am working regularly.
01:21But it was a little slow.
01:23But now, I am not.
01:24Now, I will see you regularly in this area.
01:28Where do you stand in this area?
01:30Where do you stand in this area?
01:30Where do you stand in the character of a mentor or student?
01:32Where do you stand in the character?
01:34Do you stand in the mediator?
01:35Or do you clearly stand in the ideology?
01:39And how do you prepare your complexity?
01:43How challenging is it?
01:43It's a very challenging.
01:44Who knows more of you?
01:46Because if I am playing an editor-in-chief,
01:50it means that real and real,
01:53the news of both,
01:55how to balance it in the right way.
01:58Also, there are a lot of propagandas,
02:01which you can see,
02:03how to portray,
02:05what is the story,
02:06what is the story,
02:07what should happen,
02:07what is the truth,
02:09what is the truth,
02:10what is the truth,
02:10what is the truth,
02:10what is the truth,
02:10what is the truth.
02:11And how can we balance?
02:14It's a very challenging.
02:16And I think,
02:17even the top chiefs
02:23in the media houses,
02:25the truth is a good way
02:27to tell them
02:27how to do a editor-in-chief
02:29that will be difficult
02:32to a role as an editor-in-chief.
02:33It was also,
02:34I saw many people,
02:36and talked with them,
02:37and talked to them.
02:39And then,
02:40I realized that there is a gravity, a weightage for this character.
02:49And I tried to improve it in a better way.
02:53Today, when a film is a quality, a historical specific,
02:57you get a propagandist tag.
03:00What do you think about the last question?
03:03And as an artist, how do you deal with this perception?
03:06How do you deal with it?
03:07Look, it's different from the story of a maker.
03:12Now, you can give it to anyone.
03:15But I think that if a film will be made in politics
03:21or if someone's history, someone's story, someone's biopic will be made,
03:26then there will be administration, politics, different parties,
03:31and, of course, all the people's stories will be connected.
03:36Now, it depends on how you see it.
03:41We are making it like we are making a film.
03:44And as much as we can tell a story in reality,
03:48whether anyone is involved in it, we will tell it.
03:51What is your experience with Sanju sir?
03:55It's a very dark experience.
03:58Because it's my second film with Sanju sir.
04:01And I think Sanju sir is so humble, a beautiful heart, kind person,
04:09and an amazing actor.
04:12His eyes are so loud that he doesn't need more time.
04:19You've done a lot of diverse roles in your career.
04:21Yes.
04:21You've done a lot of issues.
04:23But what reason do you have to take a long break?
04:28I haven't taken a break.
04:29I've been looking for a good film.
04:32It's a little bit of time.
04:33You don't realize that a girl who comes from Bihar,
04:36who will be able to reach Hollywood,
04:38there will be a lot of time that doesn't come anywhere.
04:41As for people that are there.
04:41I'm connected to the field,
04:46with the same character.
04:48You can access it.
04:51And that way things fall.
04:53But I don't know you ever see.
04:56And sometimes I have no time
04:57in looking for a period of time.
04:59I've spent just a time there.
05:01But there are no time.
05:01I'm going to look for the next project.
05:03I have no time after you.
05:04So, you can go to meet in the next project.
05:06How do I take the next project?
05:09and I can choose so that I always get my love
05:13and today I am sitting here
05:19I am sitting here
05:20I am sitting here
05:22I can continue to do that and you never thought
05:29that Neetu has taken a film like this. So it's a lot of time.
05:33You have to realize that it's a lot of time.
05:37I feel like I am sitting here alone.
05:45I feel like I have my eyes.
05:52My icon
05:57My purpose of life
05:59I was looking for the purpose of life
06:02which is a goal
06:05When a girl
06:06who joined a family
06:08and came across the world
06:09and came to a place
06:13and she feels like a lot of time
06:15and she doesn't have to fight
06:17If you have to ask a question in real life
06:20If you have to ask a question in real life
06:22if you have to ask a question in real life
06:24without consequences
06:25then what would you ask?
06:26Yes.
06:27This is a very difficult question
06:30for me
06:31but if Bruce Lee
06:34then I must ask
06:37to tell them
06:39how to do the world
06:41how to do the work of this world
06:43such as martial arts
06:45techniques
06:47and mental and physical techniques
06:49together
06:49or do you know that yoga can give you that yoga that you have learned in this world?
07:02The fight is not with yourself. The fight is with your own calmness and peace.
07:10When you started in the industry, what do you think of yourself?
07:15In the beginning, we couldn't reach out.
07:21Like many people wrote my spelling as N-double-E-T-U
07:25and officially my spelling is N-I-T-U.
07:28At that time, we were very little.
07:31We had bags in the age of 16-17.
07:34We started all the work.
07:36At that time, social media was very powerful or could change.
07:42Every person was confused about N-I-T-U or N-double-E-T-U.
07:46It was a small thing.
07:48But I am saying that if there is a mistake in today's time,
07:52people can change easily.
07:55But we didn't do it.
07:57At that time, we didn't even know anything.
08:02I am talking about twenty years back when I started my career.
08:09There were a lot of changes.
08:10You can see your own changes in a small and small YouTube channel.
08:17We had to make an audition every time.
08:19Every time we had to make an audition for each film,
08:25because when you were not coming from anywhere,
08:27you had to make an audition every time.
08:31You had to make an audition every time.
08:31You had to make an audition every time.
08:40I am happy that today there are OTTs.
08:42There are different verticals of opportunities
08:47which have received the actors and all artists.
08:51There are not only actors, musicians, singers.
08:54You will see everyone is doing so well.
08:57Because their opportunities are increasing.
09:00If the person has received a lot of attention,
09:01Like you said,
09:02Japanese things have been a big one
09:04but then we have had to make an audition every time.
09:08If the people have mentioned that
09:09they have shared their attention to social media,
09:10social influencers and other people.
09:13Sometimes you have seen this but
09:15sometimes players are strong,
09:16but they have rights with the opportunity,
09:18they have information and they can get social influencers
09:19and more followers.
09:24.
09:24How do you see a moment in your future?
09:27I don't think it's a good time when I auditioned and worked for three years.
09:36I don't think there will be any influences or any of the people of social media.
09:45But any serious filmmaker, just because their followers are so many,
09:52I don't think there will be any of them.
09:56I don't think there will be any of them.
09:57Whether it's Durandar or anyone else.
10:00If Shabda is casting for Durandar,
10:02then they cast the actors.
10:05It's not that you have a lot of following,
10:06but they cast it according to it.
10:08So, I think that the influence of the audience comes,
10:11it's possible that it's a story or a brand's benefit.
10:15But as filmmakers,
10:17some filmmakers,
10:17some commercial theatre,
10:19who put big money to make big films,
10:22who are makers,
10:23or even
10:25who seriously take their story and portray their story,
10:31who are the storytellers,
10:33who are just influencers,
10:37and who are so much following,
10:39they don't cast without them.
10:42I don't think that's right.
10:43And that's true.
10:44You have also produced Karn KFM in Bhutbhu Bhasha.
10:49So,
10:50there are a lot of courage.
10:53You have recently sent a quote to Honey Singh's story.
10:57Yes.
10:58In other words,
10:59some other songs and lyrics have been a lot of controversy.
11:02What do you think about the lyrics and mindset?
11:03I think,
11:04how do you think about other people in the past?
11:07I think,
11:09I think,
11:10those people like that are,
11:12they can portray it in the same way.
11:15The others,
11:17what they are doing,
11:19is not my responsibility,
11:21but what I am doing,
11:23is my responsibility.
11:24And I do that,
11:26that is the way to write a citizen,
11:29especially when you come from Bihar.
11:31Yes, I have put people in the hands of me asking why you are saying these songs on the Bigg
11:37Boss, why are you saying these songs on the Bigg Boss, why are you saying these songs on the Bigg
11:42Boss?
11:42Or I was told on a half-girlfriend that I had told them that they don't wear clothes, they don't
11:55wear clothes.
11:57I think I am very important because I work for Bihar's people for 15 years,
12:04who are not doing the work by the end of his career,
12:10by the end of his progress and the end of his success,
12:16he doesn't have a right to speak to them.
12:19My right to speak to them, my brother's right to speak to them.
12:24We are the winner of Bihar's national award winning makers who shoot in Bihar and create jobs in Bihar.
12:32It's very difficult to tell you.
12:35It's very difficult to tell you.
12:36It's very difficult to tell you.
12:36Because there are so many bad lyrics of singers.
12:40First of all, you can fight with them.
12:41Then you have pop singers and superstars.
12:45You will also come.
12:47So how can we fight?
12:48Think about it.
12:49So our request is to fight first.
12:53First of all, we are struggling.
12:54First of all, we are struggling.
12:58Why do you think that you are doing the work in the fire?
13:03What will you get?
13:05Nothing will get you.
13:06It will only be very difficult for us.
13:07Because once the language dies,
13:11once the society dies,
13:12then society dies.
13:15The language dies and the society dies.
13:16And the people who have created jobs,
13:21then they will die.
13:23In Bihar, this is the case.
13:24There is no word in the language.
13:27This is why it is seen with a very thin look.
13:30If the people tell you about Bhojpuri,
13:33then they say,
13:33the people who say,
13:34they say,
13:36they say,
13:37they say,
13:37they say,
13:39but Bhojpuri is my mother of the language.
13:41It is my mother of the Lord.
13:42It is my mother of the Lord.
13:42And the mother of the Lord.
13:44How can you say it?
13:46Because people have left it and read it.
13:48They say,
13:49they say,
13:49why would the language die?
13:50Why would they die?
13:52Today,
13:53there are jobs in Gujarati.
13:56In the South,
13:57there are jobs in them.
13:59There are jobs in them.
13:59There are jobs in the South.
14:00There are jobs in the Marathi.
14:01There are jobs in Punjabi.
14:02There are jobs in Bengali.
14:04So,
14:05why do not have jobs in Bhojpuri,
14:06Mathalim, Angika, Vajika?
14:08With the problem we do not have jobs.
14:12You are not able to create jobs.
14:14But what happened to our jobs?
14:17When we were killed by the language,
14:19we were killed by the double meaning cheap type of songs.
14:22The educated class will run away from that.
14:25You run away.
14:26And what happened?
14:27That we were far away from our languages.
14:32And this is what you should know and all of us.
14:35The mother and mother language is our understanding.
14:38And it should be in any way.
14:40What do you think is that Bhojpuri films can be used for the vulgarity.
14:47But when South films are in Hindi cinema,
14:51they are ignored.
14:53Look, you are saying that in Hindi,
14:57many people have said that it is in Hindi and South.
15:0025 years ago, it was in Marathi.
15:03But today, Marathi films are going to be Oscar.
15:06Gujarati films are going to be Oscar.
15:07Concerny films are also going to be Oscar.
15:09In every society, there is a balance act.
15:12If there are poor films from one side,
15:15which can be catered to one person to one person,
15:18it is possible that it is a rickshaw or a hotel.
15:20Those who want to watch films like that,
15:24because that is your audience.
15:27But with due respect to them also,
15:30those who work with no such a day,
15:32they can make tickets for the week,
15:36but they can watch films for the big films.
15:42If they make great films,
15:44if they make such films,
15:44they don't make good films from the world.
15:46And they come to the world.
15:47So in this life,
15:48one of the films that is made is the picture of the world.
15:50No one will meet such a maker in any language, whether they are Ravi Jadav or Shankar sir or Gujarati
15:58makers or Bengali makers who have made Hindi but they have not made their own language.
16:06So I just want to say that in Hindi there is a horrible film that you have made in Hindi,
16:11but you are making good films that you are watching with the family.
16:16Tell me about a Bhojpuri film that you can watch with the family. If we have made it, then we
16:21are talking about it.
16:22Because there is no big investment for us to make a film. I make a film with a very difficult
16:32investment.
16:35It is a very raw conversation, simple.
16:40For making a film, I don't want to make a film.
16:45I don't want to make a film because we don't want our elders to live alone for the older generation.
16:53So all the makers have to do a balance act.
16:56In Hindi, in South, but in Bhojpuri, there is also a film that will portray the society very well.
17:04Because in films, the portrayal of society is bad or bad.
17:10That's why Bhojpuri is not seen in the eyes, not in the eyes.
17:15For making a film and the eyes.
17:16Why are you watching with Bhojpuri?
17:17What are you watching about Bhojpuri films?
17:20Without Bhojpuri films?
17:20What was the future of Bhojpuri films?
17:23What was the future?
17:24Who is making videos?
17:25Who is making videos?
17:26How many releases are there?
17:27Who is going to be working in the theater?
17:29Who is it in Bhojpuri films?
17:31Are there channels?
17:35Radios, newspapers, or newspapers?
17:37Which is it?
17:38Tell me.
17:39Who is this industry?
17:41As a producer, as an actor, do you want to see some changes in Bhojpuri?
18:11As an actor, as an actor, do you want to see the film with your family?
18:14I'm sure.
18:17So that we can tell the whole world that these people have made 100 films,
18:22but they have made one of these films.
18:26Look, if you want to go to this world,
18:29people will lose one day.
18:31But if you have written the names of your names,
18:34and the President of the National Award,
18:36and the President of the National Award,
18:38then we will talk about Raja Indra Prashad and Bismillah Khan.
18:42We will make a film for them.
18:44They will make a film for them.
18:45They will make a film for them.
18:45They will come to the Three Dharmas.
18:47Nalanda University, Maurya Dynasty.
18:51Please take a name.
18:52At this time, there are also great I.S. officers.
18:55There are many top owners of industry.
18:59You name it.
19:01They will make a film once.
19:03First, you make a film on them.
19:05Then, how could you make a film on such a face?
19:08Then you think the brilliance on our language?
19:10Then you can make a film on that!
19:14Now this is very fair.
19:19That is true when you will make a picture,
19:22because the language is 50% of a good film
19:26that is literally a stamp, a salute, a truth.
19:34If your story is Gujarat's story,
19:36if you are making Hindi,
19:38then how much truth can you show up?
19:40So, the language needs to be a change.
19:44Yes, you should remake and dub later,
19:47but the truth will become the truth
19:50and the truth will become the truth.
19:57My brother and the National Award of Winning Director, Nitin Chandra.
20:01And my promise is that I am his daughter
20:04and I am standing with him,
20:06which gives us a very high level of praise.
20:10So, you think that in the foreign film industry
20:15and in the foreign film industry,
20:17and in the foreign film industry,
20:18and in the foreign film industry,
20:19and in the foreign film industry,
20:19is very difficult.
20:20In every industry,
20:22you know,
20:24making a position in every industry,
20:26is very difficult.
20:26It was not so easy to go to Priyanka Chopra,
20:29to keep their energy there,
20:33to keep their energy there.
20:34In today's time,
20:35you can see how many brands are
20:37who are brand ambassadors.
20:40And anyone,
20:41like Irfan sir,
20:43I always say,
20:44they will stay in every actor's life.
20:47Especially,
20:48we, as people who have interacted with us,
20:53and taught us,
20:54whether they are Anupam Kher sir,
20:56whether they are Gulshan Grover sir,
20:58whether they are Ashwere Rai Maim,
21:01whether they are Dipika or Alia,
21:02or whether they are
21:03who is a Muslim,
21:04who has made their own name,
21:06and someone has made their own name.
21:07It feels very difficult.
21:09It feels very difficult.
21:11I felt very difficult.
21:13Because I didn't know anyone.
21:15I didn't know anyone.
21:17I didn't know anyone.
21:17I didn't know anyone.
21:19I didn't know anyone.
21:21And I am a girl.
21:24So, I am a girl.
21:25Plus, I am from India.
21:27So, after doing racism,
21:29while doing racism,
21:29while doing it,
21:30one of the lead roles,
21:33that was also in Sony's studio film,
21:36Never Back Down Revolt,
21:38which you can see on Amazon Prime today,
21:40was very tough.
21:44Very tough.
21:46Because now,
21:48let me tell you.
21:49But,
21:51in this line,
21:52you are all the people who read it.
21:53You can know.
21:55A middle class joint family girl
21:57from Bihar to Hollywood.
21:59In this line,
22:00it is my journey.
22:01There are a lot of fights.
22:02There are a lot of hustle.
22:03There are a lot of struggles.
22:04I have always been there.
22:07I have done it.
22:09And now,
22:09I am here.
22:10I have come back.
22:11I always say,
22:12I have told you.
22:13I have been told you.
22:14I have been told you.
22:15I have been told you.
22:16Now,
22:16I will work from my country.
22:17I will work from my country.
22:18I will work from my country.
22:19When there is something happening,
22:20I will go back and come back.
22:22I feel so good.
22:23I have said that,
22:25as you have said,
22:28that you have done so many things,
22:30that you have done so many things.
22:33Especially,
22:34about Hindi film industry,
22:35some of the things that I said.
22:36You have said that,
22:36that there is a lot of debate.
22:40There is a lot of debatable in Bollywood.
22:41Do you think of the whole debate?
22:46What do you think of this debate?
22:47Do you think that there is a nepotism?
22:50Is this always a bit of truth?
22:54Do you think that there is no nepotism?
23:00Do you think that there is a lot of time?
23:04What do you think about this nepotism?
23:05Because as we always say, a doctor will want his son or daughter to become a doctor.
23:12A superstar will want his son to become a superstar.
23:17Why not?
23:18No one is born or not.
23:20No one is born.
23:22And let's be honest.
23:24Privilege, non-privilege, film background, non-filmy background,
23:30there is a lot of difference between everyone.
23:33I come from a non-filmy background.
23:37Or I don't come from a privileged class.
23:41That's why I have to go through a fight every time.
23:45And I have to study.
23:46And I have to study every person.
23:47It's not that I have only done a great job.
23:51Yes, but if you can stay mentally well,
23:54then it's a good thing.
23:56That's a big issue.
23:58And I personally feel that,
24:02whether you come from anywhere,
24:04you have to live in action and cut.
24:06Whether you come from a privileged group,
24:11or a non-privilege group,
24:13or a film background,
24:15or not.
24:16And actually,
24:17the good thing is that I come from a non-privilege
24:19or a non-filmy background.
24:21I'll tell you why.
24:22There is no legacy to carry on.
24:25There is nothing to lose.
24:26There is nothing to lose.
24:28As much as I get,
24:31this is an honor.
24:33I'm not coming from anywhere.
24:35And I'm sitting in front of you.
24:37And this will continue.
24:39Till the end of my life.
24:41And I will be a fighter.
24:43And I love it.
24:45Because Bollywood,
24:46you have recognized me.
24:47And I will always be a part of Bollywood.
24:50And I will always be a part of Bollywood.
24:52I knew that historically,
24:52Zoya has said the statement
24:54that people have decided
24:55that the Indian Wersons
24:57are not always the job in it.
24:59They talk about Protozm,
25:01what do you think about Protozm?
25:22Akhtar is a very good filmmaker, she has given such very good films and everyone wants to do this work,
25:28whether she is a dharma or a shraja, whether she is a Zohaya Akhtar, everyone wants to do this work.
25:33She wants to keep all of the good films apart and if she has said something,
25:39she will have a little background for her, I am sure.
25:43Lastly, what did you want to do with future books?
25:44What did you want to do with future books?
25:47You all know that I am in America with Salim Suleiman's music.
25:54And what is your favorite thing about this beautiful Umrao Jaan Adha?
25:59What is your favorite thing about your eyes?
26:02Live on stage, you will get to see.
26:05After me, there are 15 PhD M.A. Kathak dancers,
26:08which I am meeting with Talpital.
26:10I am meeting with Talpital.
26:11There is a 100 pages of Hindi-Urdu script.
26:15And you will hear very quickly that I am doing great stages.
26:19And my inspiration is Mughal Aazam.
26:23I will tell you that Firoz has directed and portrayed.
26:30Mughal Aazam has opened the path to our actors.
26:32That we are also going to commercial, cinema, theatre.
26:36And this was very, you should look up to this.
26:40Because we will only do in India.
26:42As far as films are concerned, I will not stop.
26:46I will only do films.
26:47Because this is my first love.
26:50And I feel very good on the screen.
26:52If you all have so much love,
26:54I will have so much love.
26:54Now I will take it away.
26:56I will not go anywhere.
26:57That's why there are more films in which I am working on.
27:01And in the process, you will see it.
27:03Just do it so much.
27:05And I will win your hearts again.
27:07That is my dream.
27:09Hey.
27:09hello... Hey,
27:09hey. Hey.
