Jaideep Chopra, an Indian film director, hailing from Delhi happens to be a self – made man and since he was very passionate about films since a very long time. He decided to jump on to the bandwagon of Bollywood directors. Besides he did not want to wait endlessly to get a decent directorial break, so he launched his own Production House namely Jaideep Chopra Production and began his filmic career with a film titled Maazii which he also wrote, directed & produced under his own banner. Now Jaideep Chopra is ready with his 2nd directorial venture titled “2016 The End” once again written, directed & produced by him.
To begin with how about giving us an insight into your upcoming film “2016 The End”?
My upcoming film “2016 The End” is a rollicking comic saga about 4 friends, who discover one day that the world is coming to an end, that too just in 7 days. All the 4 friends hail from different background as well as different strata of society and suddenly realization dawns on them that they have just 7 days left to live and also to fulfill all their dreams, desires and fantasies.
There have been many big screens as well as small screen ventures based on this similar concept. So how different will be your film “2016 The End”?
Yes! That’s true. But you see every director has his own perception, besides his own style of presentation. Like in my latest offering “2016 The End”, every character has his own dreams, desires and fantasies but in his tension filled day to day life all his dreams, desires and fantasies remain unfulfilled. But these 4 friends start planning their life, little realizing that they have a limited time to live and then all of a sudden even their priorities change.
This is 2016 do you think the world will really come to an “End” by the end of this year?
Who knows? May be yes or maybe no!!! But in my movie the world really comes to an “End”. The basic premise of my movie “2016 The End” is that there is no point in living with false hopes and being tensed up all the time and keep on planning our future when we don’t even know if will still be living for the next moment, the next hour, the next day and so on and so forth. So enjoy living your day to day life by always “Being Happy” come what may. These are all the aspects that my movie “2016 The End” will project and once you see the movie, hopefully you will get all your answers.
How would you describe the one liner of your movie “2016 The End”?
First of all let me clear the air of all the assumptions about my movie that may be made. I strongly believe and stress on the fact that “2016 The End” is not at all a routine, run of the mill movie. Let me assure you that “2016 The End” is a perfect comedy movie. It will also be not out of place to say that “2016 The End” is a laugh riot, in fact a totally entertaining rollercoaster joy ride. My actors are so happy working on this project with me that the next time whenever I plan another movie they won’t even bother to ask me for a one liner narration.
