Interesting facts

Dhuin is a Maithili language film directed and co-written by Achal Mishra in 2022 and produced by Achalchitra production house. The film is about a guy named Pankaj who comes from a small town and wants to succeed in Mumbai as a theatre practitioner.

Production

The scenario in which one of the Gamak Ghar performers had to accompany his retired father to a job interview served as the inspiration for Dhuin. Mishra stated, "The picture of the father and son on a bike in the winter stayed with me. We chose to play with a five-page screenplay I created." The length of the film was never figured out. The first cut was 54 minutes long, which is both long enough to qualify as a film and longer than a short.
