#sneakpeek Watching your #film in a theater with an audience brings all the emotions. It’s fun, nerve wracking, and informative. You never know what resonates with an audience. A moment with @andrewonochie who plays Ajani. @kurtapantsthefilm has real conversations between two humans who exist in a world where they up against #society and #culture but we still find the humor in these moments. Full movie link in bio. #romcom

@kurtapantsthefilm the film is now available for you to watch. Link in bio.

After 3.5 years, @kurtapantsthefilm is going to be available for you to watch. ❤️ the film took a life on of its own with being shown in 6 countries, took home over two dozen awards including winning Best Comedy at an Oscar qualifying festival, Best Short in LA, Best Comedy in many more, opened doors and conversations I never thought I’d be having, brought together friends and family, new friends, and allowed me to write and directed my first piece.

And cast, produce, market, distribute everything it. I grew as an artist. Because there comes a time in your career when you want to be seen the way you see yourself, tell the stories only you can tell, and have the control of your own career.

Do it. You have no idea where it’s gonna take you. And if you’re everywhere they can’t ignore you. It was one of the best things I’ve done. And I got to include my family in it which makes it that much sweeter.

It’s a story that came post #GeorgeFloyd when I wanted to call in members of the #SouthAsian community to have important conversations. I find the best way to do that is through comedy. Meet this fast paced 5 min rom-com that takes you on a ride with a twist you won’t expect. One thing very important to me was to make sure we do the thing everyone talks about— inclusion. One of the cast was 90+, one belongs to the Blind and Vision Impaired community, 3/5 of the cast and crew are female, our production has represented at least 5 different ethnicities.

It wouldn’t have been possible without every single person who donated, supported, shared, encouraged, mentored, stepped up, crewed for it, produced, family flying in, donating our location, helping with food, coming to screenings, doing hair and makeup, donating outfits, and so much more.

I am so grateful and ready to create more 💋thank you for being a part of this journey.

You can catch the film in the link in my bio & @civildisseries
