You
can
expect
nothing
less
than
brilliance
when
two
progressive
and
innovating
filmmakers
come
together.
Yes,
the
wait
to
witness
the
magic
of
Shwetaabh
Singh,
who
is
on
the
stride
of
placing
Indian
Cinema
on
the
global
map
and
the
powerhouse
actor
and
celebrated
casting
director
Abhishek
Banerjee
is
finally
over.
Shwetaabh
and
Abhishek
Banerjee
have
made
it
official
that
they
start
their
own
production
house,
Freaks.
But
this
isn't
where
they
started
their
journey
together.
Belonging
to
the
same
college
and
theatre
society
"The
Players",
which
has
given
many
luminaries
to
the
industry,
they
go
a
long
way
back.
While
speaking
about
the
same,
Shwetaabh
Singh
said,
"Abhishek
is
someone
I
have
always
looked
up
to
since
college.
We
relate
with
each
other
as
we
belong
to
the
same
school
of
sensibility.
I
have
always
wanted
to
back
new
talent,
stories,
and
innovative
ideas.
Abhishek
through
his
work
has
always
done
that
whether
as
an
actor
or
as
a
casting
director
has
been
doing
exactly
the
same.
The
path
that
he
has
carved
on
his
own
is
something
that
gives
me
a
lot
of
confidence.
This
isn't
a
start
for
us,
rather
it's
a
continuation
of
our
journey
that
started
way
back
in
college."
In
a
similar
vein,
Abhishek
Banerjee
said,
"With
Freaks,
Shwetaabh
and
I
plan
to
make
a
cinema
that
is
powerful
yet
relatable.
Unique
not
just
in
terms
of
the
idea
but
something
that
also
stands
out
in
treatment
and
execution.
I
am
excited
to
collaborate
with
him
because
from
college
theatre
to
making
cinema
together
is
a
journey
where
we
have
grown
so
much
parallelly
and
together.
Shwetaabh
is
an
FTII
graduate
and
his
ideas
shine
through
his
work.
Our
vision
aligns
perfectly."
Freaks
will
give
a
platform
to
young
talent
from
all
corners
of
the
nation.
It
will
collaborate
with
new
writers,
filmmakers,
camerapersons,
among
others.
The
powerhouse
duo
aims
at
creating
unconventional,
unique,
and
out-of-box
films
with
their
venture.
In
fact,
Abhishek
says
" We
have
finished
a
short
together
which
we
will
announce
soon.
We
are
really
excited
as
this
is
going
to
be
one
of
the
most
unique
and
expensive
shorts
ever
produced
in
India."
For
unversed,
the
new-age
producer
Shwetaabh
Singh's
last
outings,
Just
Like
That
and
Eeb
Allay
Ooo!,
earned
rave
reviews
and
bagged
multiple
awards
at
various
international
film
festivals.
Meanwhile,
Abhishek
Banerjee
is
hailed
for
his
performances
in
Stree,
Mirzapur,
Unpaused,
and
Ankahi
Kahaniya
the
recently
released
Rashmi
Rocket
-
to
name
a
few.
Their
coming
together
guarantees
something
sensational.
