Vishal Punjabi – The Wedding Filmer: I would like to do Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s wedding

Vishal Punjabi is the founder and director of The Wedding Filmer, an organisation that shoots weddings. He has shot weddings of celebrities like Anushka Sharma-Virat Kohli and Bipasha Basu-Karan Singh Grover. But apart from shooting weddings, Vishal has also directed a few scenes in a couple of movies.

Sonam Kapoor and Dulquer Salmaan starrer The Zoya Factor had a beautiful romantic number titled Maheroo and it was Vishal who had shot the song. While talking about his experience of working with Sonam and Dulquer in the song, Vishal told us, “Actually, The Zoya Factor was a film that I was supposed to direct a long time ago. But I had to refuse because of The Wedding Filmer and my responsibilities here. Aarti and Pooja, the producers of the film are very dear friends of mine and they really like what I know and they really feel that I have a knack of bringing out love stories on the screen. So, they were concerned about the chemistry between Dulquer and Sonam, and they wanted me to come and help them using the tools that I use at the weddings like slow-motion cameras, underwater stuff, and just very simple emotions that I notice in real life through the things I do watching people fall in love. We shot for a day, it was a very small budget. But I was very happy at what we had at the end and they were happy.”

“I had a great experience of working with Sonam. I couldn’t get to shoot her wedding, but at least I got to shoot her here. We had a lot to talk about because she was newly married and very excited. So, there was a lot to talk about her wedding, her experience, then what I do. She was really sad that I couldn’t shoot her wedding. But it was nice that we could do this together,” he added.

Well, there are many Bollywood celebs who are currently in a relationship and might tie the knot soon. When asked Vishal which celebrity wedding he would like to shoot, he quipped, “Right now, I am talking to Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry (laughs). I would like to do their wedding, so that would be exciting to do.” When probed him if he is doing it, he said, “No, I am not, I just saying. I would like to do Orlando Bloom and Katy Perry’s wedding that would be the ideal wedding I want to do.”
