Pratik Gandhi: Did comedy in theatre, now first brush on screen

But it will be a while before the duo can dive into the shoot of the rib-tickling fest. With the second lockdown having disrupted the timeline of many projects, the two are scrambling to honour their commitments. For Pannu, who recently returned from an envy-inducing Russia vacation, it’s all work for the next few months. “After the first lockdown, I had to finish several films in four months. I don’t endorse [working like this], but one [doesn’t have an option] in such a situation. Now, we’re in a similar scenario due to the second lockdown. I am negotiating with my producers to make up for the lost time.”

Gandhi has to wrap up Six Suspects before he can train his focus on the film. He says, “The plan is to shoot by the year-end, but a lot of dates have been reworked. We’ll begin our readings in a couple of months.”
