The Mumbai Film Festival




Helped Vidha put together the Mumbai Film Festival Posters.. It was fun working on the last few days of it, she's been at it for a few months!

Both of us sat together one evening and tried to boil down what would be iconic about the watching a "Mumbai Film Festival"
... when my dad came along and started telling us little stories around filmmaking. One of which was about the film cans and reels being taken by handcart or a cycle from one theatre to the next between the 3:15 and the 3:30 show.

Finally at the end of the day, even a film takes a cycle, or a handcart and has to travel amongst the everyday. That's Mumbai :)
