Emmy-nent! Three Indian shows are making waves on the global stage

Mumbai, May 5 () Actor Anshuman Jha believes he took the right decision to cancel the UK shoot of his film "Lord Curzon Ki Haveli" as he had a hunch that the situation may get worse due to the coronavirus pandemic.Anshuman, best known for featuring in Dibakar Banerjee's "Love Sex Aur Dhoka", will be making his directorial debut with the black comedy-thriller, starring Arjun Mathur, Tannishtha Chatterjee and Rasika Dugal.The 34-year-old actor said he was through with a technical recce in February and the team was scheduled to fly out to London for shoot on March 16."But on the March 7, I realised this is going to become something and pulled the plug on the shoot. At that time everyone was a little upset and thought I was overreacting but I'm glad I took the decision."It got really bad in the UK and we would have got stuck. Everything happens for a reason so I am not worried - the film will happen when it is meant to," Anshuman told .The UK is one of the worst-hit countries in the world by the COVID-19 pandemic. The novel virus, which originated in China in December, has claimed over 28,000 lives in the country.The lockdown in India has put all of his work on hold, the actor added. "I wrapped the dubbing of my show 'Mastram' from home, they had put a mini set-up mid March, so that kept me occupied. Everything else, new and old, is on hold and rightly so."We need to be home and follow the orders of the government and I think it will remain like this for a while," he said.Anshuman currently stars in MX Player series "Mastram", where he essays the role of Rajaram who took the pen name 'Mastram' to write erotic novels in the 1980s.The actor said he realised the popularity of the character while preparing for the role."I had never read 'Mastram' nor had I seen the film so the research phase allowed me to understand the simple, innocent person and why his literature is such an underbelly cult in India," he said."I understand it being hushed in the '80s and '90s but why stay hushed in this millennium when it is all about openness and communication with everything being a click away?" he asked.For the 10-episode series, the makers got intimacy director Amanda Cutting on board to shoot intimate scenes with sensitivity and Anshuman said the process made the actors feel secure. "My apprehensions were only with how the intimacy bits will be shot because in India we don't really have specialists doing intimacy. The producers addressed that by getting the very best intimacy directors from Canada and Los Angeles."So I was at peace about the process," he said. JUR RB RDSRDS

 Twice bitten after Sacred Games 2 This is a bad start for Netflix which <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/entertainment/news/netflix-has-focused-on-india-as-a-key-area-for-growth-exclusive-data-tells-the-story-of-its-progress-/articleshow/71467026.cms">saw 4% annual fall </a>in the estimated number of daily active users. India is an important market for the OTT platform which invested nearly ₹3,000 crore in original content. Its grew its revenue by 700% on the back of local content. This is the second franchise after Sacred Games Season 2 to have left eager fans unimpressed. A day after the second season was released, Twitter was flooded with memes and angry comments. Netflix has <a href="https://www.businessinsider.in/entertainment/news/netflix-has-focused-on-india-as-a-key-area-for-growth-exclusive-data-tells-the-story-of-its-progress-/articleshow/71467026.cms">also been dumping tanked Bollywood movies </a>like Drive on the platform which may result in subscriber loss. The failure of Ghost Stories may become a barrier for the stellar growth it was expecting. “AnuragKashyap is a very fine director and I love his craft. And here also I'm not criticising his story or his direction in #GhostStories. I'm just expressing how disturbing it was for me. In those mere 30 minutes, at several scenes I wanted to take my eyes off the screen,”<a href="https://twitter.com/aavishhkar/status/1212294487663403008"> wrote a user on Twitter. </a> Kashyap’s story revolves around the bond between a little boy and his pregnant maternal aunt. She is desperately awaits the birth of her child after having suffered a miscarriage in the past. The story tilts towards mental imbalance rather than a ghost story, personifies how crows eat their own eggs in stress.

 Zoya Akhtar’s story stands out The story of a haunted nurse that was directed by 2019’s most successful Zoya Akhtar however received a thumbs up. Not only did she direct the critically and commercially acclaimed Gully Boy but her web series ‘Made in Heaven’ on Amazon Prime was a hit with the audience. She also brought star power into her story. Janhvi Kapoor plays a nurse Sameera, who is haunted while providing care to an elderly ailing lady (Surekha Sikri). The nurse who has plans to entertain her boyfriend, is haunted by unusual noises. The segments by Dibakar Banerje and Karan Johar received average reviews. Johar however fell into his old habits as he inducted a wedding scene in a horror film. All in all, the only ones haunted by the series are Netflix executives who bankrolled it.
