Divyendu Sharma who is best known for
his role as liquid in Pyaar Ka Punchnama is all set to make his short film
debut with Virgins, where he will be seen playing the role of a Virgin boy who
is about to get married.
"Frankly, there's a lot of
unnecessary hype about virginity. There's so much of it that I found it funny -
the way everyone seems to be interested in knowing others' virginity status. So
I wanted actors with a light touch and capable to delivering poker faced
humour. Divyendu, with his boyish charm and fantastic comic timing fit the bill
perfectly. And once he read the script and met me, he hopped on board immediately,"
says Director Sandeep A Varma.
Virginity is one of the most
common and a hot topic of discussion in today's youth. The film brings out a
funny yet informational take on pre-marital sex in today’s youth. Director
Sandeep A Varma after the much critically acclaimed Manjunath, was really keen
to do something funny and this fit the bill. “Foremost reason to do this short
was the kind of questions it was asking about our society, our conditioning and
our understanding of sexuality. Its multilayered narrative is crisp and precise.
And off course Hamara Movies has been doing some really interesting stuff so it
made all d more sense to collaborate with them and with Sandeeps' vision
everything seemed just right,"says Divyendu.
The film is directed by Sandeep A Varma and is
produced by Vinay Mishra and Preety Ali.
