All that has to be said is that Kaam Chalu Hai, starring Rajpal Yadav, has the proper heart. It narrates the tale of Manoj Patil, who loses his daughter in a pothole-related car accident. Motivated by an actual event, Patil decides to cover every gap on his own when the authorities decline to assist him. The story reveals the government’s complacent behaviour and also brings out genuine emotions.
Having been much appreciated for the story, we have the man behind the project onboard, Palash Muchhal, director of Kaam Chalu Hai, sharing some exclusive insights on the film, streaming on Zee5.
Kaam Chalu Hai marks his second collaboration with the extremely talented Rajpal Yadav. Also a music composer, Palash was all praise for his lead cast, Rajpal Yadav and Gia Manek, as he shares, “Rajpal and Gia have played their parts outstandingly. We have all been well aware of the versatility of Rajpal and Gia’s natural acting was the icing on the cake. As I told you earlier, our film and TV industries have hidden gems that have not been recognised or used well. Even Kurangi (the child artist) and the rest of the cast have played their fair parts.”
In Kaam Chalu Hai, predictability and the exploitation of pain take center stage in its fixation with telling the true tale. Palash is pretty sure that Kaam Chalu Hai will definitely put the audience on an emotional roller coaster. “It has all the elements to be family entertainment, and also adding to that is the social cause on which the film is based. I hope and pray that the audience will enjoy the movie as well as be aware of the threat something as small as a pothole can cause to someone’s life. Just because it’s not happening with us right now doesn’t mean it can never happen to us.” Cinema has always been one of the most impactful mediums to reach a greater mass. And so, “I believe if more filmmakers focus on such societal causes, the audience will be more aware of such trivial yet important issues.”
