Director Nitin Kumar Gupta Announces “Only You” Film Nationwide Actors Hunt

MUMBAI: With his film 'Sayonee' released theatrically, director Nitin Kumar Gupta is already preparing to film his next in Europe. Nitin says "’Only You’ is an intense love story set over a dramatic period of time and space. It starts off as a sweet romance but escalates to an epic tale of strife and retribution, with a young couple caught in the middle of it all."

Asked why Europe, Nitin says,"The charm of the story is in it being an intercontinental love story. We are putting in a lot of detailing on European small town culture and their feudal system. The audience will get to see Europe beyond the capital cities and tourist landmarks."

Talking about the cast, the ‘Walk’ director says, "I am hunting for a new lead pair that can pull off the innocence and first love longing of Romeo and Juliet. We are auditioning new actors from all over and some of them are brilliant. However to find the perfect match of endearing vulnerability with intense acting craft is a tough task. With innocence, the actors need to pull off raw emotions that will unnerve viewers at times."

With his ‘L.A.C.’ film completing post-production, Nitin talks more about what makes ‘Only You’ so special. "Film makers sometimes forget that cinema is larger than life. This is not a light-hearted crush flick but something that will resonate with deep rooted stakes and painful decisions that alter the fate of its characters beyond reconciliation."

"Beyond all, the theme of the film is sacrifice. An inability to sacrifice for your friends, family and fellow human beings is your inability to love." Nitin concludes.
