So will the filmmaker miss watching his own film, to which Rumi said, “Luckily for me all the work around the film has been completed including the promos and other things were done earlier as the film was slated to release in April so there was nothing to worry about that department too.”
Rumi at present is in quarantine and will go for a test again later this week. He said, “If I test negative I will be able to come to Mumbai or else will watch the film in Hyderabad on its release day.”
‘Chehre’ is an important film for Rumi Jaffery who has been typecast as a writer. There’s a prevalent image that he only writes comedies and therefore he has a point to prove. He takes pride in the fact that he comes from a literature and theatre background and can write much more than punchy dialogues. He said, “Amitabh Bachchan always believed in my talent and told me to go ahead and work on the subject with the promise that he will be part of my film. He kept his word.”
He adds, “There is not much for a director in a comedy and it is a thriller that is challenging and gives the filmmaker to prove his mettle. ‘Chehre’ is one such film for me.”
