The film is a story of an escort named Riya, who gets stuck at her client Ajay’s flat due to lockdown across the nation. What happens next at the flat forms rest of the crux. It is real or an illusion is the question?

Talking about producing Fantasiser, producer Diva Singh says, “It was a joyful journey producing my first film. I feel signing Ajay Gehi was the perfect decision of Jupiter Productions, the man with abundance of talent and a great presence of his skills. It was easy for me to convince him because I was very much convinced with the punch of psychological thriller. I was very much confident that he would love it and here we are today.”

Praising the actress Aradhana Sharma and chief Assistant Director Priyanka Dinesh Malviya, she shares “ I’m very much impressed with my other cast member Aradhana Sharma, she exactly performed what our script required. My chief Assistant Director Priyanka Dinesh Malviya stood throughout the film on a single call, although she wasn’t on ground but she never made me feel that one of our crews is not available. I’m blessed with such beautiful people I have worked with.”

Sharing further on her journey, she narrates, “I was nervous before initiating even the pre-production but the more I started getting involved, more I started knowing about things. Although, I have produced few music videos with renowned singers from Bollywood but producing a film was a bit difficult. I got to learned a lot whileworking on this project.”

Talking about her future plans, Diva says, “I have tightened my seat belt to take off with my upcoming projects. I don’t restrict myself or get fearful with any obstacle as I keep experiencing through life that we don’t have to give up and begin all over again if you find yourself fallen anyway.”

Actor Ajay Gehi adds, “It was an amazing experience working on this project. Besides a good story, what was striking was the energy and the enthusiasm of the team especially the producer Diva Singh, who was well prepared much before we started shooting. Her positive mindset was very contagious and she handled the production like a veteran. The story of the film is different and has many layers and we shot it right after the lockdown was lifted so we had a lot of hinderances yet all went smoothly.”

“Even the young actor Aradhna was so good that I never felt I was working with a new comer. I wish Diva and her production more such crazy projects and all the success,” he concludes.
