To Kritika Kamra, her next, Matka King, is the realisation of a 10-year dream. The actor remembers catching a screening of director Nagraj Manjule’s Marathi film, Fandry, in 2014. It sparked in her the desire to work with the National Award-winning filmmaker someday. Today, as she is weeks away from facing the camera for his web series, Kamra’s joy is palpable. “I silently manifested working with Nagraj. I had watched Fandry at the MAMI Mumbai Film Festival, and it deeply affected me. I have followed his work ever since. I watched Sairat [2016] in theatres. He is an important filmmaker with a unique voice,” she says.
