Vishal Bhardwaj’s Son Aasmaan Turns Director; Film’s Poster Evokes Interest
Mumbai: We have heard of Bollywood star kids following in their parents’ footsteps. Here is a case of a renowned director’s son taking up film-making full time.
We are talking about Vishal Bhardwaj’s son Aasmaan Bhardwaj.
Bhardwaj junior is set to make his directorial debut with ‘Kuttey’, a thriller featuring Naseeruddin Shah, Tabu, Konkona Sensharma, Arjun Kapoor, Radhika Madan and Kumud Mishra.
Aasmaan, who has a bachelor’s degree in filmmaking from School Of Visual Arts, New York, has assisted his famous father in highly-acclaimed movies like 7 Khoon Maaf, Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola and Pataakha.
Having made a number of short films, Aasmaan has the full blessings of his father for Kuttey.
Co-produced by Luv Ranjan, Vishal Bhardwaj, Ankur Garg and Rekha Bhardwaj under the banner of Luv Films and Vishal Bhardwaj Films, and presented by Gulshan Kumar and Bhushan Kumar’s T-Series, the film’s motion poster was released on social media on Monday.
It’s an interesting poster, to say the least, featuring the cast members with human bodies and dog heads. “They neither bark, nor do they growl. They just bite,” Konkona posted (in Hindi) along with the poster that has a catchy background score.

Vishal and Aasmaan have written the script, Vishal himself is the music composer, while the great Gulzar will pen the lyrics.
Currently in pre-production, Kuttey will go on floors later this year.
“Kuttey is extremely special to me as it is my first collaboration with Aasmaan and I’m excited to see what he does with it. Luv Films and Vishal Bhardwaj Films are also coming together for the first time and I am immensely excited about this association, as I really admire Luv’s brave attitude towards filmmaking and strong commercial sense,” Vishal said.
