Ashwiny Iyer Tiwari has started shooting for the series Faadu, starring Saiyami Kher and Pavail Gulati, which will be streamed on SonyLIV.
The show, which was announced earlier this year, is said to be a “unique, intense poetic love story between two different thinking characters”.
The filmmaker announced that the series had gone on the floors by sharing a few black-and-white photos on Twitter.
