Sayani Gupta Breaks Silence on Aasmani, Calls Festival Snub ‘Deeply Unfair’!
- Sayani speaks up!
- What happened with Aasmani?
- The “unfair” part.
You won’t believe what’s been buzzing around Sayani Gupta’s first film, Aasmani! We just heard from her, and she’s setting the record straight. Her directorial debut, ‘Aasmani’, got pulled from the TIFFNZ festival.
Big news, right? This happened because of some copyright allegations. People were talking. Sayani stayed quiet for a bit. She says that quiet time was about respecting due process.
It was *not* her saying, “Yes, these claims are true.” Not at all. She strongly denies them. We get it – sometimes you just need to wait for things to unfold.
She called the whole festival snub “deeply unfair.” Ouch. We can only imagine the feeling. Imagine a film called ‘Aasmani’ – you’d expect something visually stunning, perhaps with wide-open, hopeful skies and a really distinct aesthetic. To have it pulled? That must hurt.
It’s a tough spot for any filmmaker. Especially for a first-timer. We’re keeping our eyes peeled for what happens next.
Our Take
This whole situation feels really tricky. We understand copyright is super important. But pulling a film, especially a debut, over allegations? That’s a huge blow.
Sayani sounds genuinely frustrated. “Deeply unfair” is strong language. We hope this gets sorted quickly for everyone involved. Especially for the vision behind ‘Aasmani’ – it deserves its chance in the sun, doesn’t it?
