Highlights

  • Bollywood director Homi Adajania, whose Finding Fanny trailer garnered over a million views in just 22 hours, said he shot the quirky story starring Deepika Padukone, Arjun Kapoor, Naseeruddin Shah, Dimple Kapadia and Pankaj Kapur in just 36 days.
  • Homi enjoyed working with a bunch of talented performers in the film, which is set in a Goan village.
  • "Love makes normal people do nutty things. But what if they were already a little nutty to begin with? Deepika and Arjun Kapoor signed the film before Chennai Express and Two States had released and didn't waiver because they had the same conviction.
  • "I couldn't make the film without Naseer because nobody else could play his character. As for Dimple, if I make a film without her, she will have my head on a platter," said the director, who previously helmed Being Cyrus and Cocktail.
  • Homi said shooting the film was as hilarious as the story. "I experienced great joy on being introduced to Pankaj Kapur. It was a fabulous experience directing him. Finding Fanny was a shooting experience that was almost as goofy and hilarious as the story itself," he said.
