Ek Choti Si Aasha - The foundation has been laid

Finally we are here! 9tanki Entertainment is now 1 movie old!



Ek Choti Si Aasha premiered on July 23, 2011. The entire cast and crew was present. It was an amazing feeling watching ourselves perform on screen. Everybody present at the premier had contributed to the project in someway or the other. The movie did turn out to be as expected. All of us, but obviously, loved it. But the real test was to show it to the people who are real movie-buffs and enjoy playing critics.

The best part was that the movie was liked by others as well. You can read the reviews on our Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/topic.php?uid=130335967026585&topic=113

We made some of our friends/friends' friends review our movie. And these are people who really butcher movies if they are bad and are not afraid to call spades, spades! Fortunately for us, they loved it! One reason could, as well, be that they did not want to disappoint us with bad reviews on our very first film. But all that matters to us is that they liked it. We are currently working on the audio of the movie before trying our luck at Short Film Festivals.

Our aim was to lay a foundation stone and build up on it. And Ek Choti Si Aasha has definitely worked as the best we could start off with. The feedback we are getting for the movie is tremendous, which makes us want to make many more films. The positive feedbacks have given us a lot of encouragement - yes, we can do it! Of course, there has been some criticism as well. But we need our critics. Criticism helps you improve and work better. This goes out to all our critics - Thanks a lot people, we appreciate your criticism and promise to work on them and perform better next time.

We plan to make many more movies and give people more things to think about. Because there are a lot of movies these days that do not make a lot of sense. Rather than making a Meri Brother Ki Dulhan we would prefer making a lower-budget Peepli Live. We at 9tanki Entertainment are Bollywood fanatics too. But it's not just giving the audience what they have already seen. It's about giving the audience what they are looking for; something they can connect to - something more real and natural. I know we sound a little too ambitious at such an early stage. However, our motive is to make movies we believe in. Some things we know about and somethings we would like to know about. It doesn't matter if we upset the audience who come looking for masala in our movie. Maaf karna boss! We don't make films for you!



Let's explore some new areas; some untouched sides of cinema. Let's bring about a change and try something different. You guys support us and we'll do the rest. Because, no matter how hard we strive, we are nothing without your support. We need our audience to watch us, support us, love us, and above all believe in us! More coming up soon!

Loads of love from the entire team of 9tanki Entertainment. Thank you all for being a part of our dream - Ek Choti Si Aasha!
