Adapting novels into movies is something that the Bollywood filmmakers have been doing since long. And after the remarkable adaptation of Vikas Swarup's novel Q & A into an Oscar winning film, celebrated filmmakers like Rajkumar Hirani and Asutosh Gawarikar too have joined the league and are making film based on novels.
Atul Tiwari, who's a writer and director, said, "It's not easy to adapt literature into cinema as literature has its own distinctiveness. Hence, it requires a lot of skills." Tiwari, who is also one of the conveners at the seminar, added that while adapting a novel, one should make sure that it doesn't lose its essence.u00a0
Apart from the topic of discussion, the seminar will be a rare treat for film buffs and FTII students, as they'll get a chance to interact with the well-known directors and scriptwriters from the industry.
