The veteran director will shoot for 'Aisa Des Hai Mera' in London.
He was at the helm when the television boom began more than a decade ago. His sensitively depicted serial 'Darar', starring actors Kanwaljeet Singh and Divya Seth is still remembered by soap-buffs. Veteran director Lekh Tandon is now back with another soap — 'Aisa Des Hai Mera' (tentatively titled) after a hiatus of seven years.
This daily show, to be shot in London, also marks the coming together of Tandon, producer Manish Goswami and actor Kanwaljeet who plays the lead. The story traces the trials and tribulations of two generations of an NRI family based in London and the clash of values between them.
Lekh Tandon exudes confidence about this emotion-tinged soap. "A successful show can be mounted without seeking recourse to hackneyed plots and regressive modes of storytelling," he says.
Incidentally, Manish Goswami's Siddhant Cinevision has shows on all four popular channels — 'Sarrkkar' (Zee), 'Kituu Sabb Jaanti Hai' (Sahara) and 'Sixxer' (lined-up for Star Plus). Reportedly 'Aisa Des Hai Mera' will be aired on Sony.
