Director of Gatham, Kiran Reddy said, “To an extent being an indie filmmaker helps get that fresh perspective because of limited resources and budget constraints. We think out of the box to execute the script, do justice to it by hook or by crook.”
Director Kiran Reddy shares his views on 2018 film Tumbbad, he says, “I have watched Tumbadd, the setup is minimalistic but still the way they keep the suspense throughout the movie is really commendable with minimal characters. I take lot of inspiration from movies like these. Specially for Gatham, I had to research and analyze how these guys did pull off such a good movie within limitations, they executed really well.”
