Bejoy Nambiar on why he chose to shoot Por and Dange simmultaneously in Hindi and Tamil

In a recent interview, director Bejoy Nambiar revealed why he chose to take the unconventional step of shooting a bilingual with two different sets of actors. He revealed that he felt this way more organic than opting for dubbing. “The decision to shoot the film in Hindi and Tamil simultaneously was to to capture the true essence of the story and maintain the authenticity. By casting different sets of actors for each language was a gradual process that I had planned accordingly. This method involved shooting each scene twice – once with the Hindi cast and then with the Tamil cast, ensuring a seamless sync in both the versions,” Bejoy said.
