The beginning
Work on the second leg of the annual, mentored short film competition Shuruaat by the digital content studio, Humaramovie has begun. This feature, Shor Se Shuruaat, is an anthology of eight short films based on the common theme of noise, directed by the protégés of renowned filmmakers, Shyam Benegal, Imtiaz Ali, Raju Hirani, Mira Nair, Zoya Akhtar, Sriram Raghavan, Nagesh Kukunoor and Homi Adajania. Each mentor has nominated a protégé to direct a short film, unique in its own way depending on the filmmaker’s interpretation of the theme. The eight short films will range from 12-15 minutes and will be compiled to make a feature that will have a theatrical release later this year.
