Hopping from one theatre to another, producer Saqib Saleem is getting common feedback from the audience about Baby Do Die Do — that the Huma Qureshi-led action thriller is “unique”. For the actor-turned-producer, that is heartening.
“With our company [Saleem Siblings], we want to tell original stories. So, when people say that they hadn’t seen something like this before, we feel that’s what we wanted to achieve. We didn’t want to make a template film. There are some template films that are being made out there, and they have a market. But I want to get to a point where whenever my company’s name comes up, people think we’re making something cool and quirky,” Saleem told mid-day.
