Filmmaker Madhumita on why she stepped into the darkish thriller zone with John Doe

After directing the Abhishek Bachchan-starrer Kaalidhar Laapata (2025), filmmaker Madhumita had two initiatives lined up — Tamil net sequence Love All the time, an adaptation of the South Korean webtoon Right here We Go Once more, and psychological thriller John Doe. Whereas the previous, starring Jayasudha, Jayaprakash, Gouri G Kishan, and Ramzan Muhammed, premièred on JioHotstar on October 30, the Arjun Das-starrer hits theatres on November 13.

With Love All the time, Madhumita explored comedy with out abandoning the emotional considerations that outline her filmmaking. John Doe noticed her enterprise into one other style. “I needed to make a ‘why-done-it’ slightly than a standard whodunnit. As a result of generally the rationale behind an act is much extra chilling than the act itself,” she says.
