Ekta Kapoor to team up with Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari for 2 movies

According to reports in a leading Indian daily, television czarina Ekta Kapoor has collaborated with filmmaker Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari for two projects. One will be a comedy film based on a married couple and another will be lighthearted comedy. One of the projects will be helmed by Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari.

Talking about the same, Ekta said, "I had seen Nil Battey Sannata and had messaged her appreciating it. Next, we met on a Chennai-bound flight, sitting one behind the other, where we roughly chalked out a plan to work together. Eventually, after months of exchanges, we’re here. We get along really well. Our sensibilities work beautifully, in tandem with each other. There’s so much depth to every scene, every character she creates. When you have new talent, you mentor, but when you have a talent like Ashwiny, you ally with her because she brings something distinct to the table."

Ashwiny said, "In these months that we have been interacting, Ekta has always given me my space and she understands me well. There is nothing corporate about our equation. We didn’t join hands saying that, ‘Come, let’s make a blockbuster’. She keeps everything simple. She also understands human behaviour and has amazing insights about the psyche of the Indian audience. Stories, scripts and films are all about people, which she understands well. It doesn’t matter what the future professionally holds for both of us, but this relationship that I share with her today will last a lifetime."

Today, Ekta Kapoor tweeted about her collaboration with Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari by sharing a picture of them together.

She tweeted, "Magic happens when creative women come together. Excited to collaborate with Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari. We are producing two films together, one of which will be directed by @Ashwinyiyer!"

Ashwiny too tweeted by stating, "There is so much more to films! Looking forward for this beautiful world of storytelling to evolve as @ektaravikapoor and I get our creative forces together for the pure love of cinema. Gratitude."
