After a special screening of ‘Rang De Basanti’, Rakeysh Mehra interacted for over an hour with over 80 students of the first batch of WWI at the Pelicula Auditorium on the WWI campus.

The students questions ranged on topics from historical references and specifics in Rang De Basanti to his experiences & learning over the years as a film-maker and the insights that enabled him to make a film that connected so well with the youth of today.

Continuing the methodology of students gaining knowledge, insights & experience from successful current industry professionals as part of their curriculum, on July 25, 2006 reputed film-maker Mahesh Bhatt interacted with students & faculty at Whistling Woods International

Inhale Life, Exhale cinema! Was what Mr Mahesh Bhatt summed up in a 2 hour interaction with over 80 students of the first batch of WWI at the Pelicula Auditorium on the WWI campus.

This was shortly after a special screening of one of his best films – ‘Arth’. With a standing ovation from students on his arrival, the prolific film-maker was bombarded with multiple questions about the fine nuances of film-making in general and Arth in particular.

Prior to the student interaction, Mr Mahesh Bhatt spent over an hour with the core team of Whistling Woods International sharing his views on direction, screenwriting, production, acting and several other aspects of film-making.
