ANUJA & NIRAV’S BOLLYWOOD CONCEPT MOVIE

Posted in concepts, weddings

What The Heart Knows | How does a shy M.D. win the heart of a gorgeous pharmacuetical rep? Find out in “Dil Jaanta Hai (The Heart Knows),” starring Anuja & Nirav, an original Bollywood-inspired short we produced for their 6.6.09 wedding. The couples’ surprise big screen debut premiered on two massive screens just before their grand entrance to hundreds of unsuspecting family and friends.  Stay tuned for a behind-the-scenes featurette coming soon to EventDV-TV.

    Okay, so seriously, this is insanely good. I’ve watched it about five times now and I can’t stop. Those songs will be stuck in my head for months. I think it’s time you enter this into a film festival and finally produce a feature film. You guys obviously have the talent!

  2. inspirational, to say the least.

    Adorable, fun and really great! You’ve got a winner! Congrats to the newlyweds, they made a classic!

  13. Just Magnificent. You should be entering this into film festivals!

  14. Chris Dumlao says:

    I’m not gonna talk about how GREAT the cinematography is because that’s already obvious. I do want to applaud you in your Directing skills though. I know these are non-actors (aside from Bednob) but you really have me convinced! They did a great job!

    From start to finish.. a very clean production! BRAVO!

  15. BRAVO Kevin!!
    I agree with Chris….from start to finish….INCREDIBLE!!!

    This was amazing! What is your background? Do you work in the movie industry? This was so professional, i really enjoyed it.
    The quality, the colors, the way it was filmed, and the story was good too!… i was stunned.

    I have a question, how did you make the opening sequence, with the logo, the movie reel and the ocean. Can you describe to us how you did go about making that. I would love to be able to make such a nice opening myself. Was it all done in AfterEffects or what?

    If you dont work in the movie industry, then you should!! :)

      Thanks Stein. Our opening animation logo was a collaboration between myself on the 2-D design, our friends at Ghostlight Digital (who animated the reel, sky and water) and our friends at Bentlight Digital, who added the 3-D text. They used a combination of After Effects, Lightwave 3-D and Maya. They did a great job & we couldn’t have done it w/out them. Thanks again for the kind words.

    This was sooo good! I was forwarded the link by a friend. My brother is getting married this June and his fiance has the most amazing bollywood-themed ideas. So, I must ask, how much did this set back the bride and groom or their families? Please do tell because I would love to gift something like this to them for their wedding!

  19. Troy says:

    That was fantastic. I\’ve gotta agree, great directing, especially considering the two main characters were non-actors. This is something they, their children, and their grand children will treasure forever.

    Wow! What every one else said. I came across this at Scott Bourne’s blog, Photofocus. He said he snagged you for an interview. I’m on my way now to get that interview. You’ve got mad skills. Keep it up.

  21. Guy says:

    Kevin, WOW I was given this link from Scout Bourne’s site Photofocus.com I listened to the interview you did for him and I want to thank you for doing that. After listening to the interview I watched your movie, man I am impressed. I love the video and music, the mix between Hindi and English was great. I loved the end of the movie so much I woke my wife up so she could watch it with me. I am going back now to watch it again.

  22. Micheal says:

    Your bollywood movies are very good, I love it…

  23. Daniel says:

    Kevin, that was outrageous, in a great way. The dancing, the music, the production value, the cinema, THE STORY! It was all there. I’ve watched it several times, and can’t get enough. Just listened to your interview with Ron Dawson, thanks for doing that, and I love your work. Your passion shines through. Keep putting out amazing work. Thank You.
