    What's the story

    Filmmaker Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari, who had helmed the hit love triangle, Bareilly Ki Barfi starring Rajkummar Rao, Ayushmann Khurrana, and Kriti Sanon, has started shooting for her debut web series.

    The SonyLIV venture, titled Faadu, stars Special OPS (2020) fame Saiyami Kher and Pavail Gulati from Thappad.

    Faadu has been touted as an unusual, "poetic love story" between two individuals of different thought processes.

    Context

    Why does it matter?

    Just before this series, Tiwari had directed Break Point for ZEE5, along with her husband Nitesh Tiwari.

    The docu-series focuses on tennis champions Leander Paes-Mahesh Bhupathi and is the first-ever directorial of the Tiwaris.

    It managed to make an impact, as does most of her outings.

    Tiwari's knack to bring out impactful content in a simplistic manner might also get reflected in Faadu.

    Information

    The series might carry an old school charm

    Though the team announced the project launch, they did not specifically say if the shooting has started.

    However, LetsOTT Global, a reliable source of OTT news, shared that the series' filming has commenced. The platform used a black and white picture of the filmmaker along with Kher and Gulati in their post.

    The photo hinted at an old-school charm that the series might carry.
