Sunday afternoon is a great time to catch up on your weekly dose of film and this Sunday gone by saw a host of film buffs head to Cinemax Versova for the Show Reel Short Film Festival.
Hosted by Poonam Gurani (of Shreenathji Holidays) and Vikram Ram of RBC Integrated, the event saw almost a dozen short-films being screened over a two-hour period.
Though there were a number of films by amateur film makers, established actors like Vinay Pathak and Vijay Raaz also previewed films they were associated with.
Actor Vinay Pathak showed a film called “4-Play” which had people wondering if it had any sexual overtones to it while Vijay Raaz showed a film which he produced, called Ek Langda Aankada.
Of course, if Vinay Pathak is in the house, his best buddy Ranvir Sheorey can’t be far behind. The critically-acclaimed actor landed-up minus his wife, Konkona Sen Sharma and instead bonded with Vinay and the cast of the film.
The young film makers were given an inspirational boost by celebrity judges like actor-model Aryan Vaid, actressRitu Shivpuri and Mimoh Chakraborty (son of legendary actors Mithun Chakraborty and Yogeeta Bali) who will soon make his B-Town debut in India’s first 3-D film called “Haunted”.
