Mumbai:
Offers have started pouring in for 11-year-old Partho after he bagged a National Award for hisperformance in Stanley Ka Dabba but father Amol Gupte says he wants his son to work only with him till he is 18.
Partho essayed the central character of Stanley in the Gupte's directorial venture. It is a heartwarming tale of anorphan who struggles to get 'Dabba' for school.
"There are a lot of offers coming for him but I have been rejecting all of them. If he comes to know this then he wouldabuse...curse me for it. So I would make films with him," Amol said.
Ask him if Partho would work only under him, pat comes the reply, "At least till he is 18. Because you will have togive him a four-hour shift on a holiday where he does not miss his school and friends, if you are willing to give that thendefinitely he will work in any film."
As a writer-filmmaker, Amol has been highlighting issues relating to children be it in Taare Zameen Par or Stanley Ka Dabba and would like to continue this trend.
"I like to bring up those subjects that entertain as well as highlight an issue. There are lots of things that I want tosay related to children. In movies, I want to bring up subjects that are sensitive to children," Amol said.
So what issues would he like to highlight in his forthcoming film, to which Amol says, "Children itself aresensitive, my aim is to make films revolving around children, their difficulties and problems."
Besides, being a writer and director, Amol is also a hands-on actor and appreciated in films like Kaminey , whichearned him the best villain award besides winning accolades for his roles in, Phas Gaye Re Obama and Bheja Fry 2 .
