Actor Karan Bhanushali has hopped on board as a writer for director Jay Bodas’ upcoming Gujarati film ‘Fakt Mahilao Mate’. Talking about the film Karan said, “The one-line idea was introduced to me by our director Jay Bodas. I wrote a demo scene for him based on that premise and the next thing I know, I was on board as a writer. I gave it a structure and helped in developing the story arch, screenplay and finally, we came down to dialogues.” 

Fakt Mahilao Mate is a women center Gujarati film. Speaking about that Karan added, “won't be able to say a lot about the content of the film but as the title suggests, the film is a family comedy-drama and women play an important part in the story. Talking about inspiration, a lot of it was drawn from the women in my own family.”

Explaining how he manages acting and writing, the ‘Ashi Hi Aashiqui Jai ‘ actor added, “I've been shuffling between writing and acting for almost a decade now and I love exploring both crafts. So if everything goes well, I'll have three releases this year, both as an actor and a writer and I am enjoying this phase. This is my second full-fledged film as a writer. Before this, I wrote for another film directed by Viral Shah.”
