The filmmaker revealed that the raw and reckless nature of Hasseen Dillruba’s world drew him towards it. He said, “It’s so forbidden that it is exciting, which is also what pulp offerings are. The film’s sheer audacity drew me to it, even though it was far removed from who I am,” as reported by Mid-Day.
Phir Aayi Hasseen Dillruba features Taapsee Pannu as Rani Vikrant Massey as Rishu and Sunny Kaushal as Abhimanyu. The movie depicts the vulnerability of love and its toxic nature as it intertwines three lives.
The director added further, “To humanise characters in a pulp is a challenge because deep down, however colourful they may be, they are people like us. It’s the devilish side of us that they beckon. So, I was sensitive to that. I wanted to explore the humanity of these seemingly outrageous people.”
Desai’s attempt was to make the characters grounded which makes it easy for the audience with resonate with them. However, he is not denying the fact that they are not evil. His idea was to make the characters humane which makes them believable.
