Konkona is precise as a director: Kalki Koechlin

Darpan News Desk IANS, 07 Jun, 2016 01:28 PM
  • Konkona is precise as a director: Kalki Koechlin
Actress Kalki Koechlin, who will be seen in Konkona Sen Sharma's directorial venture "A Death In The Gunj", says she is "precise" in her work as a director.
 
Asked how is Konkona as a director, Kalki told IANS: "Konkona is fantastic. She is a super human. I don't know how she does it, but she sleeps for four hours a day and despite being so tired, she never shouted on sets.
 
"She is very precise and I think because she has been around her mother (Aparna Sen) and she has been doing films all her life, she knows her visuals, her frame, her edits and so, she is a very precise as a director."
 
"A Death In The Gunj" also features Ranvir Shorey and Tanuja. The film traces the journey of five individuals who are on a holiday.
 
While Konkona has made a transition from being an actress to a director, will we ever see Kalki do the same?
 
"Not anytime soon. I am enjoying my work right now. Besides that, direction is too much work. I don't even have enough money and time to make a film," said Kalki, who also keeps herself occupied with theatre-related work.
