In a brief chat with Movie Chakkar, Supriya Pathak, the director’s better-half clears the air about what they felt. “The film might have not been a super success, but it did not fail. We still stand by the fact that we made a good film and are proud of it.”

Hats Off Productions brings <em> Remote Control</em> on 9X. It’s a story of a middle class family and their simple life. They are very happy and content with life until the time a TV enters their home. “The title of the show revolves around the story. With the ever growing number of channels we get restless and demand for more. It has a philosophy which suggests that you want more than one thing in your life. Life too is similar to television sets. We always expect more from life,” says the producer J D Majethia.
