Mitu on her new production SSUP MAA: It’s a pure mother-daughter story… the realness and relatability of characters is its USP


Director and creative producer Mitu is extremely excited about their latest project SSUP MAA. The series will be streamed on the YouTube channel Positive Thinkerz Official, March 30 onwards. One new episode will be released every Wednesday.
 
“Watch short humourous episodes on interactions between mother and daughter in the series that are full of banter. At the same time there is some learning and teaching happening from mother to daughter and vice versa. How ‘gen X’ is ‘gen Z’-eed is another way to define the series. Maninee De is leading the project, while Siddhi Narvekar plays her daughter. The realness and relatability of the characters are the USPs of the series,” she says.
 
On casting Maninee for the role, Mitu adds, “Being a mother herself she was a natural choice for the role. And, her own relationship with her daughter is quite similar to what she does in the series. Both Maninee and I worked together in Delhi first, at that time we all were newcomers. She was acting in a series where I was an assistant director and we really hit it off. Then we worked in Kahin Kissi Roz, Sarrkaar and later we did a pilot of my show where she played the main negative role. We have known each other for 25 years or more now.”
Mitu shares that somewhere these series reflect her relationship with her mother. “I like to take everything in humour. Self-depreciation is my forte. And being a gen-X I feel for the situations and topics we pick up. My relationship with my mom has always been fun, and we have these light banters. My mother's favourite pastime is roasting me. And somewhere I enjoy it as well. A number of episodes are real-life situations that have happened between mom and me,” she reveals.

What also helped her shape the characters and conceptualise the series better is the fact that she too is a mother in real life. And, Mitu shares that she shares a friendly relationship with her daughter
 
 “We are more like best friends. We bicker, fight, make up and we have a lot of fun together. I want her to have the freedom to think as an individual and form her own opinion and mind. But sometimes that does backfire at me (laughs). The one thing I am most particular about is that if I promise her something I fulfill it for sure, so that she also learns to keep her commitments and promises,” she ends.

Ruthvik Reddy: Vicious trolling by insensitive people can disturb the peace of mind and confidence of actors

 Social media has a lot of positive as well as negative sides, says Ruthvik Reddy. The actor, who will be making his acting debut with National Award winner Arun Shankar’s new single titled Hum, says that while social media is a great way for actors to connect with their fans and vice versa, it also provides a platform for people to troll public figures. “There is no doubt that social media has revolutionized everyone’s lives in this era. Social media has wiped the distance between a star and fan. Fans can have direct access to the star that they like. Not just follow actors, people can have direct interactions with them as well. But social media also gives the power to people, who follow actors, to say negative things about them in public. Vicious trolling by insensitive people has become an extremely common thing today and has the power to disturb the peace of mind and the confidence of actors,” he says.  He adds, “Everything has its positives and negatives, whic...
