Alfonso Cuaron Encouraged Me To Be Fearless: Chaitanya Tamhane On 'The Disciple'

News 18  

It feels like a dream, says Court director Chaitanya Tamhane on Oscar-winning filmmaker Alfonso Cuaron's decision to board his second film The Disciple as executive producer just after it was selected for the main competition of the Venice Film Festival. Tamhane, feted for his impressive debut in the Marathi film Court, almost Kafkaesque in its depiction of the Indian legal system, describes as "surreal" the feeling that someone of Curaon's stature has shown faith in The Disciple. The programme finished two years ago but Cuaron decided to lend his name to Tamhane's film and praised him as "one of the most important new voices of contemporary cinema". I'm super excited but I also feel a sense of responsibility," Tamhane said when asked about his connection with the director of international classics such as Gravity, Children of Men and Y Tu Mama Tambien.
