Agastya Nanda didn’t know how to deal with negative reactions towards The Archies: “It’s my first try and I am going to work hard and get back up”

by

Agastya Nanda, son of Shweta Bachchan Nanda and Nikhil Nanda and grandson of Amitabh Bachchan, made his acting debut in Zoya Akhtar’s musical The Archies. He stepped into the limelight with his debut as Archie Andrews alongside newcomers Suhana Khan, Khushi Kapoor, Dot, Vedang Raina, and Yuvraj Mendra. Mihir Ahuja had prior experience in OTT space. Released on Netflix on December 7, 2023, the film had mixed reactions from the audience and critics. Agastya, acknowledging the criticism, has expressed his thoughts on the same.

Agastya Nanda didn’t know how to deal with negative reactions towards The Archies: “It’s my first try and I am going to work hard and get back up”

In an interview with The Film Companion, Agastya Nanda reacted to the reactions saying, “Honestly, I didn’t know how to deal with it. When you are not prepped in this area, you don’t know that many people have many opinions. And that’s okay, you must have your opinion but I didn’t know what was going on. Some people hated it, some people liked it, some people were indifferent to it and that’s ok.”

He believes that The Archies didn’t work on some levels and he is okay with that. It was his first project and he plans to work hard in the future. “On some levels, it didn’t work and that’s ok. It’s my first try and I am going to work hard and get back up, try for the second and if that doesn’t work then try for the third and then the fourth but to get to that realization took me some time,” said the actor.

Reflecting on the opportunity, he added, “I made six lovely friends, I got brilliant exposure. I got to showcase myself on a huge platform. I was grateful, it’s ok, people would kill for this opportunity. I shouldn’t sit here and feel low about it. I gave it my best and I’ll keep giving it my best.”

When spoken about his uncle Abhishek Bachchan, who had also faced similar criticism in his early years, Agastya was informed that his ‘mama’ would put up posters of negative reviews on his wall. But, Agastya said that it was a bit too dark for him. “I think everyone has to do it. I don’t put up negative things because why keep reminding yourself of it. Be aware of it, don’t be ignorant. I did learn. I just watched the film and see what’s happening and I just watched where I can improve, like any person in any field would do. Obviously, when you look at it I was like ‘Oh God what was I doing there, why did I say’ but I am not putting anything up on my wall. It’s a bit too dark,” he said.

The Archies, helmed by Zoya Akhtar, was produced by Tiger Baby.

Shehnai mein ek quality hoti hai ki wo aapko thodi si khushi bhi deti hai aur thodi si udaasi bhi deti hai. Uska ek mixture hota hai emotions ka. Khushi bhi deti hai aur thodi se udaasi bhi hoti hai (Shehnai has a quality that it gives you happiness and a little bit of sadness. It’s a mixture of emotions. Makes you happy and sad both). So, that’s my emotion.”

A star-studded wedding reception will take place on January 13 at the BKC Jio Centre in Mumbai where Bollywood celebs to politicians are expected to attend.

And I really don’t give a f””” what any one thinks of him or his film. I wanted to meet the man and I had questions and he answered everything I asked of him about his film that I actually saw twice. Thank you for being patient and being yourself. 40’days since I first saw ANIMAL and 22 days since I saw it the second time. The biggest game changer of Hindi cinema in the longest time and a film whose impact (good or bad) which can’t be denied. And the filmmaker who takes it all on his chin.

Anurag Kashyap praises Vikrant Massey starrer 12th Fail: “A new benchmark set by Vidhu Vinod Chopra for filmmakers like me who have been feeling lost”

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has penned a long note to praise Vikrant Massey starrer 12th Fail. Directed by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, the film was released last year and is considered one of the best movies of 2023. It also became a sleeper hit.

Anurag Kashyap praises Vikrant Massey starrer 12th Fail: “A new benchmark set by Vidhu Vinod Chopra for filmmakers like me who have been feeling lost”

 Anurag Kashyap wrote on Instagram, “Probably the best mainstream film I’ve seen in 2023 @vidhuvinodchoprafilms at the age of 71 has crafted a masterpiece out of a simple story of an adamant man wanting to be more than what life gives him. He goes and takes what he wants and how.”

“What amazed me about the film is how he breaks all conventions of mainstream and has scenes done in simple long shots.. the crowd scenes of Mukherji nagar which feels like the camera just happened to watch the story unfold without disturbing the atmosphere . It just felt like we were fly on the wall witnessing the film unfold . The sparse background score, something that mainstream cinema always shows from. The faith the filmmaker has in himself and his actors and his storytelling that he doesn’t use the BGM to manipulate the audience or the emotions,” Kashyap added.

The filmmaker further said, “A filmmaker at the peak of his storytelling and at this age . Means I have hope too. A new benchmark has been set by VVC for filmmakers like me who have been feeling a bit lost. Kudos to the whole team who I don’t know and all the actors. Especially @vikrantmassey @medhashankr @anshumaan_pushkar @anantvjoshi and the cinematographer Ranga , the production designer and the music directors and writers . I have met Manoj and I’ve read the book but I never could have seen it how VVC saw it. It’s on HotStar and a must watch. I was unlucky to find time to see it in cinemas but saw it on my personal screen but do give this film a shot . Love you VVc for inspiring me . May you never really grow up and always be the troublesome brat that you are even at 71 . Just big big hug and love to you.”

According to a report in Mid-Day, a source revealed, “The cast and crew were recently informed that March 2 is the big day. Nitesh sir has charted out a long schedule in Film City. In the first part of the leg, Ranbir and Sai will shoot the dialogue-heavy scenes. The major crowd sequences, including some war portions, will be shot in April and May. The idea is to wrap these scenes before the monsoons hit the city.”

Director Nitesh Tiwari and VFX powerhouse DNEG have collaborated extensively, investing months in crafting the mythological universe for their upcoming epic. The pre-production phase involved intricate look tests and 3D mapping sessions with the cast. Ranbir Kapoor will fly to Los Angeles in February for crucial technical rehearsals at the DNEG office. The source added, “In the first few weeks of the shoot, the makers will also be flying down expert technicians from Los Angeles to help them get familiar with the process.”

The makers plan to release Ramayana by the second half of 2025.
