Sherni: Director Amit Masurkar opens up on the climax of Vidya Balan starrer, says the scene wasn’t in original script

​By a staff reporter : Amit Masurkar is a man who works at his own pace, much like his films. A four-year gap between Newton and the latest, Sherni might seem a lot to many, but the director is unfazed. He says, “It’s not deliberate.” The same can be said about the thought-provoking Vidya Balan-starrer, which seems to reflect the director’s own calm. 

​In an interview Masurkar  deconstructs the unhurried pace of Sherni, the brief he gave to Vidya Balan and why letting go of the “colonial” gaze is essential to telling a jungle film.
