Eighteen years after he directed `Asambhav`, Rajiv Rai — known for films like `Tridev` (1989), `Vishwatma` (1992), `Mohra` (1994), and `Gupt` (1997) — returns to the set with an action thriller, `Zora`. Talking about the film, which rolled on August 11 in Jaipur, Rai says, “At this age, I just want to enjoy the process of filmmaking. Though it is a small film, it is an ambitious venture. The challenge was to make a low-budget film with new talent, and shoot it in a digital format. My last film was shot on celluloid with a 35 mm Arriflex camera. Hence, this film [shot with drones and an iPhone] was experimental in every way. Taking a risk is traumatic, as I am not gutsy like [my] father, Late Shri Gulshan Rai.”
