In Nitin Baid’s Chashma, we open ourselves to the poignant story of 11-year-old Supriyo, who faces challenges at school due to his poor vision. TheKonkona Sen Sharma, Shishir Sharma and Ayan Khan-starrer, which will première at the MAMI Mumbai Film Festival on October 22, explores Supriyo’s journey towards self-acceptance. Baid admits that for the short film, he drew from his own life. “Personal is always universal,” he smiles.
“I was in class five or six, and I couldn’t see the blackboard for long. I was afraid of telling anyone because I was afraid of getting bullied. I used to copy from the guy who used to sit next to me, and I would watch TV exactly like the character does. Today, you see a lot of kids wearing glasses, but that was a different era. At that time, I used to be worried, [that if I wear glasses], I will be judged as a kid and people are going to call me Chashmish. For five-six m

A private viewing of a film?
That sounds exclusive and enticing… made one feel like a star. But it was just a start — a start to showcase what a small group of talented individuals can do.
The idea for the fourteen-and-a-half-minute film brewed over a cup of coffee where writer Tanuj Khosla shared his story with actress Renita Kapoor. Kapoor said she always wanted to play a dark character and the story offered that.
Set in an indeterminate interior, in this case Kapoor’s house in Singapore, the film mapped the life of a stand-up comedian couple in India (and there is no way to figure out where the locale is if it is all within a room).
