In this interview, the young director talks about all three projects, plus his plans, or lack thereof, to adapt novels. Director Nuhash Humayun is on a roll. This is the first time he plunged into pure horror, according to the director. We still have a couple of exciting festivals coming up including some Oscar qualifying ones. Even though he is the sole writer here, a large project with multiple stakeholders can become a complicated writing assignment.

He exemplified the Michael Jordan biopic produced by the basketball legend himself, as a precautionary tale. When Chorki came to Nuhash for ideas for a web series, he pitched an anthology about Bengali ghosts. The idea instantly clicked, not only with the producers, but with everyone he casually mentioned it to. Since these ghosts are not exactly in any literature, Nuhash depended on folklore that was passed down generations in the form of bedtime stories.

The background score by Abhishek Bhattacharjee and Rakat Zami was created even before there was a script, so that they had ample time to experiment with sound. It got thousands of comments. I made origin stories of some of the interesting ones. It was a complex story writing challenge.
