Starring Sushant Singh Rajput and Shraddha Kapoor in the lead role, Chhichhore is set in an engineering college and sees the duo age from college-goers to middle-aged characters.
“I spent four years of my student life in the IIT-Bombay hostel, where giving everyone nicknames that ranged from conventional to weird is a kind of a tradition. While Aniruddh would become Anni and Sandeep was Sandy, the weird ones were contextual,” the director says, adding that it served as inspiration for his characters. “In the film, we have an angsty guy called Acid, another guy who misses his mother a lot is called Mummy.” The trickiest thing about these nicknames, Nitesh points out, is that they tend to stick for life. “I still call my college friends Guppa, Gucci, Puke, B-Zero, Dard Kumar, Skinny, Bhindi, Danda,” he laughs.
