Takes a village to make a film

Huma Qureshi

Huma Qureshi has wrapped up the Ahmedabad schedule for Gulabi and moved on to her next, Jolly LLB 3. Bidding farewell to the set of Vipul Mehta’s directorial venture, which was filmed in and around Ahmedabad, wasn’t easy for the actor, especially since the last day was a fulfilling shoot. For the finale of the schedule, the filmmaker had slotted a critical crowd sequence.


A source from the unit reveals, “The shoot was on the outskirts of Ahmedabad, and the production team had gathered 300 people from nearby villages. One would think that managing such a crowd would be a nightmare, but it was an electric shoot. Huma and the extras filmed the sequence without any hiccup.”  


Led by Qureshi, Gulabi tells the story of an auto-rickshaw driver whose determination and courage inspire those around her to break free from society’s constraints. For the actor, it represents the kind of stories she wants to front. She says, “Working on Gulabi has been a joy. The powerful narrative resonated deeply with me. It’s a story that speaks to the heart and soul.”
