Mumbai, 21 Nov : .Pratik Gandhi is an actor best known for his role as Harshad Mehta in “Scam 1992:The Harshad Mehta Story”.He now portrays journalist Aashu Pal in Hindi audio series ‘Gangistan. This story is about Aashu Patel, a journalist and author from Gujarati and his investigations and research into the Mumbai underground.
Pratik talks about Gangistan and says it is his first podcast.He has also known Aashu Patel since childhood, so it was easy to bring the character onto-screen.
Aashu’s role was a bit easier for me since I had known Aashu for many years.It was an enjoyable experience to immerse myself in complicated emotions and interesting situations.
It was easy to relate to the ambition of the protagonist and I thoroughly enjoyed having to only use my voice for the role.
“Gangistan” spans different periods, including the 1980s, 1960s and now.You will find interesting stories and facts about Mumbai’s gangs and their impact on the community.In the lead roles, Dayashankar Pantdey and Saiyami Kar Kher play pivotal parts in this 48-episode series.
Pratik says, “Gangistan lets you make your own visual interpretations which I believe is the power and potential of audio.It’s great that the recording was done with the entire team.We didn’t just sit in front of the microphone and talk.The script was used to create situations, such as a scene in which Saiyami is lying down and I am sitting beside her.Or some encounter scenes that the actors run across the studio.
Siddhanta pinto directs Gangistan.
The story is by Aashu Ptel, writer, and creative producer Heer Khant.
This was a nostalgia affair for journalist Aashu Paltel.
Aashu Patel adds that audio has a similar appeal to the power of pens in that the imagination of the listener is free to imagine the story.My journalism days were relived so much by writing ‘Gangistan,’ which I co-authored with Heer Khant.
This is a great story that spans multiple decades and crosses fiction and nonfiction.It is something that has not been attempted before in audio.
Siddhanta pinto, director, says the project took over a year.”Finally after having been in Indian audio since 2001, we feel that we are just scratching the surface on the true power and potential of audio.” The project was over one year long, but every moment has been a joy.”
