Written byAashna Sharma Directed byPranav Bhasin My RoleThe Boyfriend, Assistant Director & Director's Assistant FeaturingFarzana Palathingal (& Habib) MusicSarang Menon

Billi is a sitcom-style superfast short from Pranav Bhasin and Aashna Sharma — not all bonds born out of legendary nights should be remembered.
It is also my on-screen debut. I play the boyfriend.
Off camera, I was back as Assistant Director and Director's Assistant — credited, once again, as "Assistant Everything" — and shot the behind-the-scenes. My second short with Pranav after (Taylor's Version).
