Vishal Bhardwaj set to launch son Aasman as a director

Acclaimed filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, known for such award-winning movies as Makdee (2002), Omkara (2006) and Kaminey (2009), will soon launch his son Aasman in the film industry.

The news has been confirmed by none other than Bhardwaj’s wife and singer par excellence Rekha Bhardwaj.


“My son is completing filmmaking in NYFA (New York Film Academy) and we will launch him as a director in May. He also composes music and makes Vishal listen to them. Both father and son duo bond over film making,” said Rekha.

When asked about the kind of films her son would like to make, the eminent singer said, “Most boys like the thriller genre. He is a bundle of talent and has inherited all our qualities. Whenever he comes up with something, whether it is a piece of writing or lyrics, we don’t smother him with appreciation. Instead, we encourage him to make it better. He feels excited and tries to give his best.”

Well, someone has very rightly said that an apple does not fall far from the tree.

Amazon’s ‘God of War’ reset proves Hollywood can’t get video game adaptations right

Highlights

  • Dave Bautista is taking over as Kratos after Ryan Hurst's injury forced Amazon to recast the role.
  • The series is effectively starting again, with none of the footage from the original production being used.
  • The major reset puts fresh pressure on Amazon's attempt to adapt one of gaming's most recognisable franchises.

Hollywood's relationship with video game adaptations has changed considerably in recent years. Shows such as The Last of Us and Fallout have demonstrated that games can translate successfully to television when their characters and worlds are treated with care. Amazon's God of War, however, has already encountered a production setback that makes its journey to the screen considerably more complicated.

Dave Bautista has closed his deal to play Kratos in the Prime Video series after Ryan Hurst, who was originally cast in the role, suffered a serious on-set injury. Hurst reportedly tore his bicep while performing a stunt in June, around four months into filming. Amazon MGM Studios and Sony Pictures Television subsequently decided to recast the central role.
