Incredible work by the entire team. #RashmiDesai #Tamas #Adhvikmahajan."
Adhvik Mahajan has donned multiple hats for this project. Besides acting, he is the writer, director, producer, and director of photography of the film.
"I had thought about this idea a while ago, but got the opportunity to work on it during the lockdown. One day I got a text from a casting team for a web project asking for my work profile but his reply was 'bhai tv ka experience count nahi hoga (TV experience won't be counted), anything substantial in cinema or web'. That triggered something in me and I decided to make my project all by myself," said the "Divya Drishti" actor.
"It was very kind of her to trust me and believe in the project, which was really a big deal for me. She has given a personal touch to the character with her innocence. It's been a wonderful experience working with her. I think this process made me better as a creative person and I have learnt a lot. This experience has taught me that with passion and zest you can do anything, and I'm really happy that I was able to make 'Tamas' the way I have imagined it," Adhvik Mahajan added.
