Ad-maker Prasoon Pandey to direct his first feature film
“I really enjoy the kind of stories I get to do in Advertising, which is why I haven't done a feature film yet. So if I have to take a short break from ads after we are done casting, I was clear that it would have to be a story that's truly intriguing and unlike anything I've seen before."
