Wednesday, 9th August 2017, 06:00 PM IST Shreyas Talpade, who is all set to make his directorial debut with ‘Poster Boys’, is very happy with the audience’s response to the trailer of the film. Starring Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol along with Shreyas Talpade in the lead, the film is a remake of the famous Marathi film ‘Poshter Boyz’ that released in 2014. Talking further about this directorial venture, Shreyas says “We couldn’t find a director, so I had to direct it. Jokes apart, everyone around me and especially Sunny paaji suggested that I should direct the film. He said, ‘You have a vision and you have seen the film, so why don’t you show us the film through your direction’”. Commenting on working with Sunny, he added, “He is a reserved and a shy person, and that makes him unpredictable and intimidating. However, he treated me as a younger brother, and was very protective about me on the sets. He was supportive and listened to my directions. I would be sceptical about explaining a scene to him, but he would readily agree to do it. He never questioned my abilities or my potential as a director. He believed in me and that helped me a lot”. “I am a huge Hrishida fan (Hrishikesh Mukherjee; late director). I have always looked up to his films and works. Also, in my career, I have worked with varied directors, starting from Nagesh Kukunoor to Farah Khan and Shyam Benegal. So, I have tried and incorporated whatever I have learnt from these great directors into my work.” added Shreyas.
